As a business owner or marketing manager, it’s important to make sure your LinkedIn Page is managed efficiently and securely. By granting the right access to specific team members (or a marketing agency), you can start to enhance your LinkedIn marketing efforts.
That’s why in this blog, we’re providing you with a step-by-step guide for granting users with Super Admin access on LinkedIn, along with some important considerations to keep in mind.
Why Super Admin Access Matters
The Super Admin role allows a user to add, edit, or remove a Page and its paid media admins. This role is automatically assigned to the creator of a LinkedIn Page and is key to overseeing all administrative functions. By understanding how to manage these roles, you can maintain control over your LinkedIn Page and ensure it operates smoothly.
Important Considerations
Before adding an admin, there are a few key points to keep in mind:
- Connection Requirement: You can only add someone as an admin if they’re a 1st-degree, 2nd-degree, or 3rd-degree connection.
- Page Following: In some cases, a member might need to follow your Page before you can add them as an admin.
- Showcase Pages: Super admins of the parent Page aren’t automatically granted admin access to affiliated Showcase Pages. If you need admin access to an inactive Showcase Page (inactive for six months or more), you may need to contact LinkedIn support.
Now that you know about the Super Admin role and what it takes to add one to your page, we’ll show you how to complete the process. Follow the steps below to ensure a seamless and efficient setup for your Page:
