Choose a name for the group in VK. How to name a group in VK to interest. Using keys in the title
Hello dear readers, today we will continue the conversation about social networks in VKontakte and we will talk today about a very interesting problem, namely I will tell you what to call a VKontakte group.
Why is the name of the band so important?
The name for the VKontakte group directly depends on its success and can facilitate its promotion tenfold.
What should be remembered when choosing a name for the VK group:
- mutually interchangeable letters cannot be combined in the group name
Example: the name "CoolMonster" - all letters are English, so you can do
Example: the name "Soo lMo nster" - all the letters "O" are Russian, you can’t do this
- You can not use stop words (Mat, everything related to the theme of adult)
- When creating a name for your group or public VK, try to avoid special characters ■ and so on, this can negatively affect the issuance of your group in the search for VK (exception is the symbol “|”)
- When creating a name for your VK group, try to stick to the strategies that I will describe below.
- If possible, try to make sure that the name of your group does not have direct takes with other groups. Example if you have a public about travel, then if you look at the issuance of groups for this request, VK there are a lot of takes. Add a companion word for example: Travel and tourism.
Personally, I think that there are only 3 ways to correctly name a VK group, so that there are no problems with promotion: based on the frequency of requests, relying on a wordstat, for a brand, for a promoted public or group. Let's look at each item separately.
How to choose the name of the VK group based on the brand.
We all know perfectly well that it is possible without any problems to promote a group or public VK only on one brand of the game, series, etc.
I will give a simple example. Now the train has already left and this is irrelevant. However, as soon as it became known about the release of the game PokemonGo, the first who managed to create and fill the fan community with content received more than 50k people in their public places for free. It was the same with the series Fizruk. Well, you can lead such examples ad infinitum the whole main feature in time to create a public under the brand and fill it with content for more confidence, you can wind up a couple of thousand offers and you're done. Following this technique, you can easily get targeted free traffic of VK subscribers for your group or public
How to choose the name of a VK group for a promoted public or group.
This idea is as old as the world, but not very popular among smmschikov although it has a place to live.
The essence of this methodology when choosing a name for a group or public VK is based on a promoted public or group of your subject. Let me give you an example: there is a group, let's say 4ch, the point is to create a similar group, for example 4ch is the best, or 4ch is overheard. Well and so on. Thus, you will only have to post to your own public or group the news of similar topics from the donor group, but we will receive free subscribers to our public account due to the brand of the main group. It is important that you do not completely copy the name of the donor group, in which the name should differ otherwise. It is important that you can not copy posts from the main group to your own; it is best to select posts of a similar subject in other places. I advise you to wind a couple of thousand offers in your public for solidity
How to choose a group name for VK based on Wordstat data
This method is quite simple, the whole essence of the method is when choosing the name for the group to use the results of Yandex statistics, even if they are not accurate, but they can give an approximate idea. For example, see 2 screenshots below.
That's actually all I wanted to tell you about choosing a name for the VK group
Are you looking for a catchy name for your band? The name of the group can play a key role in your success or failure. Choosing the right name is one of the highlights for your group. And one day, when you become famous, the process of choosing a name for your group may even become a legend. So do not blunder!
Steps
Basic rules for choosing the right name for a group
- Value should not condone bad behavior. One Scottish group called itself “Dogs Die in Hot Cars,” which literally translates from English as “dogs die in hot cars.” This is not the best image for the group, although provocative.
- In the name of the group, avoid speculating on tragedy or human suffering. If the name is obscene, some radio stations may have difficulty pronouncing it.
-
Let the name be fresh. You should avoid names that were popular a long time ago and today are clichés.
Imagine the image of your group. What is your group like? What will you try to convey to people? What is your group like? Who is your target audience? Understanding the essence of your group will help you with the choice of name.
- The name of the group should match your brand and genre. If you are a country band, most likely you won’t want your name to sound too punk rock. You don’t need people to be disappointed that the name of your group carries what the group is not.
- If you understand who your target audience is, then you can choose a name that appeals to your audience. The popular group “Green Day” was guided by this principle in choosing a name. “Green Day” (literally from English “green day”) implies smoking marijuana, and the group through slang appealed to a certain audience, consisting of young rebels.
Name selection
-
Look for inspiration in pop culture or literature. This topic is durable. A famous example is the Veruca Salt group (Veruca Salt), whose name was borrowed from the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
- Mikey Way worked at Barnes and Noble and saw Irwin Welch's book Three Stories of Love and Chemistry (the English title of the book is Three Tales of Chemical Romance), which prompted him to name the band My Chemical Romance. The source of the name of the band “Good Charlotte” is also literature. The name of the group “Avenged Sevenfold” (literally from English “sevenfold revenge”) was taken by Matthew Sanders from the Book of Genesis (the first book of the Pentateuch, Old Testament and the whole Bible).
- Once there was even a group called “Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head” (literally from English “Natalie Portman's Shaved Head”). Not surprisingly, the musicians eventually had to change their name. Calling a band after a celebrity would not be a good idea. And to associate the name with some old case is even worse.
- Use lyrics. For example, the group “Panic! At The Disco ”inspired the song“ Panic ”of the band“ Name Taken ”, and“ All Time Low ”took the name from the song“ Head On Collision ”of the band“ New Found Glory ”.
-
Take inspiration from simple things and products. Flowers Food. Sewing machines. Well, you get the point. Take a look around. You will find a huge number of things with interesting names.
- Malcolm and Angus Young from the AC / DC group found the name for the group on a sewing machine. AC / DC (acronym for Alternating Current / Direct Current) was printed on the back. They decided to use it.
- Product names may also be great for this. Think of Black-eyed Peas (asparagus bean) or Red Hot Chili Peppers (red hot Chilean peppers).
-
Choose a random name. There are various methods for choosing a random name. Sometimes groups select a random word from the dictionary. So did REM, The Pixies, Incubus, The Grateful Dead, Evanescence, and Outkast. Apoptygma Berzerk followed the same path using two randomly found words.
Use your name or initials. This is always a good option, especially if there is a soloist in your group. For example, the name of the group “Dave Matthews Band” is based on the name of a group member. And it works.
- However, this method of selecting a group name implies some risks. If your group changes the lead singer, it will be difficult for you to continue performing with the same name. And Van Halen is an example. Another problem with this method is that some members of the group may feel left out.
- If you choose your own name as the name for the group, you may need to add it to make it sound more interesting. Or you can just use your last name.
-
Come up with a new word. You can make up a new word from several others. Perhaps this new word or phrase will have some special meaning for you.
The name should be quickly and easily reflected in the Internet search results. Nowadays, one of the criteria for choosing a suitable name for a group is how easy it will be to find on the Internet. When searching on the Internet, common names, such as, for example, “Girls”, can get lost in a huge number of links to other things related to girls.
Avoid names with hidden negative connotations. You need to feel how far you can go without compromising the reputation of your group. Using the example of a group called “Viet Cong”, you can get an idea of \u200b\u200bhow the name of the group can become a problem in receiving invitations to hold concerts.
Good day, dear readers of my blog. Remember the first VKontakte communities? Then the Internet was not so familiar, people still did not realize their similarity.
More than a million people counted in such groups as the “Community of people who squeeze a blanket between their legs when they sleep” or “Those who clutter up a balcony every winter and take it apart every summer”.
Now you can’t attract anyone with such headings. Today we will discuss with you what to call a group in contact and not make a fatal mistake. You will learn all about the rules and basic mistakes that beginner administrators make.
Fatal errors
To begin with, I suggest that you need to talk about how you don't need to name a community. If you are still a beginner, and I think that this is so, then you probably heard about key phrases, and so on. So, if you decide to create a name based on all this disgrace, then it is very in vain. Most likely this song is not about you.
I will explain briefly for those who are not in the subject. An example is rude, but what came first to the head. People write in the search line: “How to choose linoleum” and if you call the community in the same way, it will appear in the search results of Google and Yandex, even though this is not a site, but just a VKontakte group.
Remember that in search engines, people are primarily looking for information. When they enter this query, they want to read the article to quickly find out the answer to a topic of interest. In order for your group to meet their request, the content must fully meet this request. Let the advertisement occasionally flash there, but basically they should receive valuable advice.
If the reader does not find it, then within a few seconds they abandon the site. Many users are well aware that they are unlikely to find a VKontakte answer and simply do not open a link to your group. The benefit will be minimal.
In addition, suppose that they entered a community with the same name, but choosing linoleum is a one-time deal. The likelihood that they will join the group and all their life will follow your news is negligible.
Another thing is if you create either a collection of quotes and aphorisms, a selection of the best books, films, photos.
If you are creating a group for a business, then by and large you should not give a damn if he becomes a part of your community or not, it is important that he finds out about you and buys a product. The person became interested in something, found you through a search engine and received information directly in the group. What else is needed?
However, in addition to this, there is still a layer of groups for which optimization is important. They are interested in a specific topic and have a need to update their knowledge. If these readers find a good resource in a search engine, then most likely they will not want to lose useful links and subscribe.
If you are making a community with music, then I would definitely mention the genre that you publish or narrow the audience in some other way. An advertisement, site or group cannot be multifaceted. Community for all and about everything - does not attract people. The more elitist it is, the greater the desire to enter.
Would you be a member of a group that constantly offers films that are not specifically interesting to you?
Imagine you are in a community with information about different TV shows. The amount of news is limited and you are offered news about the "Cops", "Soldiers" and Porechenkov, then suddenly "Game of Thrones", "Vikings", then they slap some Hannah Montana or whatever else they show on children's channels. You will not want to read so much superfluous, once again having seen an inappropriate picture in the tape, you will unsubscribe.
We need to look for a middle ground. VKontakte is full of Stas Mikhailov Fan Club or Stas Mikhailov’s Music communities. If you look at it from the administration side, such groups are also not winning.
It's too tight. You will not find so much information and you will not be able to regularly post posts in such a way that they will remain interesting. I think that Stas Mikhailov himself is not capable of this. But, we moved a little from the names to the choice of topics.
A very important point that novice administrators forget about. The name should inspire entry, create a desire to join. And in no case should it offend or embarrass the audience.
"Music for Women Over 50" will attract few young ladies. The name should be positive and maintain the image of the subscriber. Suppose: "Music for women who know a lot about songs."
You can describe the state of mind when such compositions are best listened to.
Now I would like to give you 5 tips to help you come up with a name for your group:
- From the name it should immediately be clear what a person will see in the community and news on what topic he will receive.
You can point to someone who is likely to be interested in public.
For example, “For those who have friends not only on the Internet” or “Group for those who are looking for penpals”.
- Try using extralinguistic knowledge. This may be a paraphrased famous quote, the name of a movie, a popular song, a character, etc.
For example, a group for women can be called “50 shades of girls”, “Alice in the country of women”, “One hundred years of loneliness or the life of (without) a woman”.
I’m not a supporter of creating such an extensive community, such as about life in general, but for such a group you can take a quote and do not change anything in it: “Life is beautiful when you want it ...”, “Life is a cool thing, I liked it,” “ Life is a complete adventure. ”
- Pay attention to the artistic means of the language. Google, find something interesting. The Russian language is very rich and can make the name attractive.
Use epithets, synecdohs, litots. You can even beat mistakes such as tautology. Teenagers will certainly be led to such.
“Love love”, “Fly-love”, “Love, like a skyscraper in Tokyo”, “Love, chilling blood”.
- It will be very cool if you use the final mission in the name, the result that a person achieves by reading your public.
“Life has become easier”, “I found a girl”, “Love is positive.”
- In some cases, you can use the names in English.
Frankly, I would not use this method in my groups. In this case, you need to act so that the basic level of knowledge is enough to translate what is written and become interested. Given these points, the title will be boring anyway.
“Lerning for love”, “Woman and Sex”, “Life for life” - such public sea, it will be difficult to stand out.
By the way, pay attention to your name is unique. Try to stand out. So it will be easier to interest people. Of the two communities with the same name, the crowd will choose that public, where there are more subscribers.
And the most important. Remember that the name of the community does not play a decisive role in the popularity of the group. It may only be of interest, but the administrator himself does the rest. Do not forget about advertising, hold promotions and contests, follow the content, try to collect more likes, reposts, comments and people will absolutely give a damn about the name of your group.
Of course, if this name does not offend the person who subscribed to it. Few people make a repost from the group: “I spent the last money on the Internet”, “Fat loser and her 40 cats” or “I have no friends because I'm a freak”.
Choose wisely.
Well, that’s all, it remains only to advise you on the book “ Social Media Marketing "If you want to know more about competent work on the VKontakte group. I also suggest that you subscribe to my blog and receive more useful information directly to your mail.
How to name a VKontakte group and promote it in the TOP VK?
What should be the name of the VKontakte group? What to write in the description of the VK group? What avatar for the group to choose? What content to add to groups? Where to get ideas for the constant posting of news in a group? In general, what kind of posts do you need to add to the wall of the group and account? All these questions in one form or another have probably come up with you! Perhaps more than once. I have answers to them! Although all at once, in one article, I will not give you an answer. Today I will reveal the topic: " what should be the name for the VKontakte group?».
If you ask yourself (or whom else): how to name a VKontakte group, then this article will be the answer for you! By the way, if you think about the questions:; ; , then feel free to follow the links, I have collected the maximum information for my readers and subscribers (sign up, I plan to talk about chips working with VK).
How to name a VKontakte group?
You know, when I delve into the topic, I came across a specialist who told me how to create ... more precisely what should be the name for the VKontakte group. Then his answer was correct, earlier in the name they tried to “cram” as many keywords as possible, supposedly, the more keys, the more queries you would find in the VK. But now, in order to get to the top with this:
Or, for example, with that name
... you need to recruit hundreds of thousands of participants! Of course, the number of group withdrawal in the TOP depends on the competitiveness of the request, but in any case, to bring a group to the top with a name that contains more than one key request is much more complicated than with one key.
Let me show you an example of the difference between a complex and a “one key” name:
Take for example a group called: "Philosophy | Esoteric | Psychology". As you can see in this list, she is in last place, although there are 513,307 participants in it! None of the groups in this VK search exceed the number of participants in this group. Please note all groups have fewer members than her.
In the TOP are those groups that match the request and in which a larger number of participants.
You probably already guessed why. Everything is as usual (in this life) simple!
If a group has a name with a direct entry of a key request, then it is the most competitive and falls into the front ranks of the TOP. Those. if you want to raise your group in the TOP, then the name for the VKontakte group must be given according to the key request of your topic. Highlight the topic of your group of primary or primary importance, find a specific query - this will be the name for the group. Ah, well, yes! Rate your query competitiveness! Search for the key query that interests you and see how many groups already have that name. Have you looked? Did you see how many people you need to “catch up” to the group in order to rise in TOP1? Act!
Usually, for a quick rise in the TOP, the number of participants is getting better, I use it for this, but there are other programs for promoting VKontakte groups (by the way, I plan to talk about them, so sign up!).
So, I think the question: how to call a VKontakte group, is exhausted. There remains one small nuance!
No matter how high your group stands in the top, people will reach a lively and interesting group!
You understand what business people are looking for until they find it, and having found it, they will continue to search for “something else” to keep abreast and be as informed as possible. Therefore, if you do not plan to engage in a group, write new content into it every day several posts a day, then do not rush to “catch up” people in the group. Yes, this way we will achieve a natural influx of new and interested people, but they will leave if we do not give them what they were looking for. They will also leave if they do not feel the living creatures of the group. A well-worn but “dead” VKontakte group is no better than a regular announcement on a bulletin board! In some cases, boards work even better!
In SMM, specialists are divided into two categories:
- those who professionally and quickly wind up the number of participants (they usually do just that).
- and who attracts new (CA participants, because even if the winded participants are alive, they are not the target audience) of the participants and works with the audience. One who creates and maintains activity in the VK group every day. Here, in addition to the skills in SMM, knowledge of human psychology and the ability to quickly maneuver information are needed.
I am writing this just so that you would know the difference and that you would not have extra illusions regarding. In SMM, as well as in SEO (by the way, I recommend a SEO blog), there are technical methods and tools for working, but the human factor has not been canceled in either case. People leave those resources on which they do not find the requested information. Only on social networks is everything much faster!
In VK, as well as in any other social network, posts are usually short, and therefore a person does not need a lot of time to understand that he is not interested in being here (in the VK group). Therefore, make your groups: interesting, informative, enjoyable and lively.
Create the correct name for the VKontakte group, fill it with useful content, communicate and interested people will be with you.
Good luck in promoting your VK groups in the TOPs!
PS: the name for the VKontakte group can and should be created beautiful and recognizable! If you want to be in the TOP and be recognizable, then as the group moves to the TOP, add identification marks (words) to the name of your group.
P.S. 2: by the way, guys who want to attend an educational seminar on SMM, come to my group, there is now being held mini contest : write an intelligible comment, repost and go to a seminar for free, which costs more than 2000 rubles.
With respect and love, !
It would seem that it’s such a thing to come up with a vivid and memorable name for your group in Vkontakte. A little imagination, a little patience, and the right name will come to mind itself, providing the public with impressive success. But it was not there. The search for a good name can take a long time, and some users spend whole days and nights doing this occupation, surrounded by various directories and dictionaries. When you start doing this seriously, it turns out that everything is not at all simple, and besides creativity, you need to know a little more about SEO (search engine optimization) and SMM (social media marketing), and be well aware of what the name of the group means for the group itself.

So, if you are interested in what you can call the VKontakte group, then I recommend paying attention to the following:
At the same time, pay attention that the most competitive and visited group will be that in its name will have a direct occurrence of the key request. Therefore, do not change or modify the keyword in the name of the group, this can most directly affect its attendance.
- Explore Public Competitors. The name of your group in a social network should not repeat the names of existing publics, especially those already promoted and with high popularity, otherwise your group will simply be lost against their background. Be original and creative, look for something of your own that will allow you to create beautiful names for VKontakte groups;
- Do not use too long a group name, and even with complex terminology. This usually leads visitors to avoid your group;
- Use sites that collect statistics on key queries (e.g. Wordstat), this will allow you to track the most popular queries, and take them into account when creating the group name.

Names for the group in Vkontakte in English
If you want to come up with a name for a group in Vkontakte in English, then when creating such a name, you should use the same principles that I described a little higher for groups in Russian. Learn the names of the English-language groups “Vkontakte”, be original, use keywords in the name of the group and do not forget about the statistics of queries. At the same time, since English-speaking (and related to the English language and culture) groups are also quite common in VK (statistics produced about 38 thousand different groups, one way or another related to the English language), you will have to make efforts to keep your name bright and original.
Alternatively, you can think of interesting abbreviations, for example:
Make your English like is professional- makenglishpro
English speaking society - engsociety
Study English in Skype - studyengskype and others.
You can also use banal, easily understandable, English-language phrases, or their analogues. For instance:
English is fun
Just english
English for life
English EveryDay
Daily english
Conclusion
In the process of inventing a name for a group on Vkontakte, first of all, pay attention to the tips I have listed on creating a name for your group. Be sure to consider the specifics of SEO, and do not forget that a unique and vivid name for the group is not the only component of the success of your project. More important is the constant novelty of the materials, their quality and relevance, as well as the desire of the creator of the group to devote all his strength to the development of his public. "Patience and a little effort".
