When running a Facebook page, whether for a business or yourself, it helps to have a team of people who can help you with things like content editing and publishing, follower data analysis, and more.<\/p>

After setting up a Facebook page, you can give others access to it at varying levels. An administrator has the broadest set of privileges. Here’s how to add an admin to your Facebook page.<\/p>

How to Add Someone as an Admin on Your Facebook Page<\/span><\/h2>
  1. Navigate to your Facebook page. Scroll down the left sidebar menu and select “Settings.”<\/li>\n\n
  2. This will take you to the Page Settings menu in general. Scroll down the left sidebar menu and select “Page roles.”<\/li>\n\n
  3. Type the name of the person you want to assign to the page in the “Assign a New Page Role” section. The dropdown menu will provide you with options, and you can select the person you want from there.<\/li>\n\n
  4. To reveal a dropdown menu of role options, click the box next to their name.<\/li>\n\n
  5. Select “Admin” from the dropdown list.<\/li>\n\n
  6. A message will appear saying, “If you’re adding a new admin to your Page, please keep in mind that they’ll have the same permission to make changes to this Page as you do.”<\/li>\n\n
  7. When you’ve found the perfect name, click “Add.” Facebook will then ask you to re-enter your password to ensure that you are the one making the change.<\/li>\n\n
  8. The person’s name will now appear under “Existing Page Roles,” with a red “pending” message next to it.<\/li>\n\n
  9. Once the person receives the notification, they can accept their role, which will appear in the “Existing Page Roles” section. This displays each person on your page, sorted by their permissions. For example, you could have one person as admin and another as editor.<\/li><\/ol>

    This menu can also be used to change the permissions for each person on your page. So, if you already have someone as an Editor, you can promote them to Administrator by selecting the “Edit” option.<\/p>

    When you click “Edit,” a dropdown menu appears, from which you can select another role for that person. This eliminates the need to re-add them to your page. This menu section can also be used to remove people from your page.<\/p>

    What Is the Role of Your Facebook Administrator?<\/span><\/h2>

    Your Facebook administrator is the CEO\u2014the member who has access to everything on your Facebook page. A Facebook Admin has the ability to manage page roles and settings, edit the page and add apps, create and delete posts, send messages to followers, respond to and delete comments, remove and ban people from your Page, manage ads, and much more.<\/p>

    You’ll notice that every Facebook for Business page has roles, ranging from Admin to Editor to Moderator to Advertiser, Analyst, and Jobs Manager. Facebook offers a variety of roles, allowing your company to limit certain permissions and access within your internal team or marketing agency. This way, you can delegate tasks to social media experts without risking cybersecurity breaches or an innocent mistake that breaks something on your Facebook page.<\/p>

    The Advantages of Adding a Facebook Administrator<\/span><\/h2>

    #1. You Have the Ability to Delegate Tasks<\/span><\/h3>

    When you add a new admin, you can delegate tasks such as moderation, advertising, and other page roles to someone in your company. This is a crucial step in tackling your Facebook marketing with ease.<\/p>

    #2. In the Event of an Emergency, You Have a Backup Plan<\/span><\/h3>

    Things go wrong from time to time. Your additional admin can access your Facebook for Business page if you are locked out of your Facebook account. This is useful in times of crisis, such as when you have unhappy or abusive comments that require moderation, updates to operating hours due to weather or holidays, and messages from customers that require immediate responses.<\/p>

    #3. You Have the Option of Taking a Sick Day or Vacation<\/span><\/h3>

    When you’re not in the office, someone with the same permissions as you will manage your Facebook for Business page. This is critical in any business.<\/p>

    Things to Look Out For When Adding a Facebook Admin<\/span><\/h2>

    We discussed the benefits, but there is one major disadvantage to adding another admin besides yourself: security. When you add another admin to your Facebook Page, you run the risk of cybersecurity breaches that could harm your page’s reputation, marketing, and reputation.<\/p>

    A word of caution: never promote someone to Admin who you do not completely trust. Mostly because they have the ability to deactivate you as administrator and hijack the page. If you are unsure whether to add an Admin, use “Editor” instead. This person will be able to do a lot of day-to-day Facebook page management without being able to make major changes to the page itself, such as changing the page name or adding more Admins.<\/p>

    Most businesses will have to add an administrator to their Facebook page. As you advance, you’ll need to delegate and hand over control to others. You should have no problems with your new Page Roles as long as you follow these steps and precautions.<\/p>
