Facebook Page Admins Have New Roles

We wrote an article last month about page admins for Facebook pages.

There is a new Facebook feature for page admins, that we are LOVING. Facebook have released Facebook Admin Roles, meaning you can limit how much your page admins can do. Perfect to be able to protect your page.

So here is an outline of the new roles.

There are 5 types of admin roles available on Facebook now, all with varying permissions.

• Manager
• Content Creator
• Moderator
• Advertiser
• Insights Analyst

Manager being the highest permission that you can have. Manager is the default permissions.

If you don’t want an admin to have control over admin roles, then make sure they are something other than manager.

This is particularly handy for larger businesses who require a large amount of admins.

See the graph below from Facebook that outlines the different permissions.
