Google Groups - Create a Welcome Message

One of the first things you might do to set up a new group is to create your welcome message for visitors and new members. To create a welcome message:

  1. From the Home screen, click My groups. A list of your Groups appears.
  2. Click the Group to create or change its welcome message. The Topics screen appears with a list of all current topics. If your group does not have a welcome message, “This group does not have a welcome message” is displayed below the Group name.
  3. Click Add welcome message.
  4. Type your welcome message in the field.
  5. Click Save. Your welcome message appears at the bottom of the list of responses.
