Why You Shouldn't Be the Only Admin of Your Facebook Page
One admin is one bad day from a permanent lockout. Here is why you need a second full-control person — and how to add one you genuinely trust.
There is a hard rule built into Facebook that catches single-admin Pages every time: the last person with Full control cannot remove themselves, and there is no one else who can re-add access if their account goes down. If you are the only admin and you lose your account, get hacked, or are disabled, the Page can go dark with no self-serve way back. A second trusted full-control person removes that risk entirely.
Why two is the magic number
Full control is the only access level that can add and remove other people. If just one person holds it, then there is no one who can step in when that person is unavailable — and Facebook will not let the sole admin remove themselves precisely because doing so would orphan the Page. A second full-control person means there is always someone who can re-add access, promote a replacement, or recover the situation.
Two is usually enough. Every extra full-control person is another account that could be compromised, so resist the urge to hand it out widely. Pick someone with a real stake — a co-founder, business partner, or long-term employee — not a freelancer or agency.

Access issues are easier to prevent when roles, owners, and responsibilities are recorded clearly
Most access problems trace back to the same gap — no clear record of who has access, what role they hold, and what should happen when that changes. Delvia helps you keep that record so problems are visible before they become incidents.
