How to add an administrator to your Facebook page

If you need help managing your Facebook page, here's how to add someone as an administrator.

There are many ways to make your Facebook page as efficient as possible. Delegating responsibilities by adding another administrator can be of great help as you won't have to manage everything yourself.

Here's how to make someone an admin on your Facebook page, but also what you need to know about what happens when you assign the role to another user's account.



When you create a Facebook page, you are automatically the administrator of it, which allows you to control everything on it. Among other things, you can add buttons, create ads, reply to comments, post from Instagram to Facebook, and assign roles to the page.

You actually have five roles to choose from on a Facebook page:

  • administrator
  • Editor
  • Moderating
  • Advertiser
  • Analyst

Each can use certain features on the page with the administrator at the top of the hierarchy and responsible for all functions. In other words, adding a Facebook admin is a big deal.

Make sure your new administrator is trustworthy and someone you feel comfortable working with. You don't want to clash or end up getting kicked off the page.

Choosing the right people for different roles ensures smooth performance and page security.

  • Scroll down to Settings , where you can customize the features on a deeper level.

  • When you are sure you want a new admin for your Facebook Page and have someone ready for the role, go to the Assign a new role to the Page section.
  • First, you need the person's Facebook name or email address. Enter either one in the available field and choose a role for them from the toggle bar, in this case Admin.

  • Finally, click the button Add . Your pending team member appears in Roles of the existing page and receives a notification about the new status. If they accept, the change becomes official.
