What's better for a business? A page or a group?

What are the differences? Doesn't say much on the main facebook site tbh??

Not sure, got 200ish people on a group and 2 on a page... A good 1400+ friends though... which is abit pointless, as when it hits 5k you can't do anything else. Will delete the group though. Seems a bit shit, compared with a page?

Can you post status's on a page?

I use a page, we've merged it with our location and use RSS Graffiti to post our news and events automatically from our website. Seems to work nicely and we get a lot of interest even though the business is small and has quite a small fan base on there

Groups on Facebook arent really for businesses either, there's a help article on their dev site about it iirc.

The company I work for has a page.

As you can see, It's very popular!
