Facebook announced Friday changes to the page admin flow. Previously, a page owner could only promote a user to an admin role if the owner was directly connected to the user as a friend. Now, page admins can add another admin, so long as they have that person’s email address.
After the page owner (or another previously-approved admin) does this, Facebook will notify the new admin on the right side of News Feed and an email, depending on that user’s notifications settings.
