Not all page administrators have equal responsibilities and Facebook knows it.

The social network said it would provide the ability to create five different levels of admin access to pages as soon as the end of this month.

(We’re talking about pages, not developers, who already have the ability to create four different levels of access to their applications.)

Facebook Product Manager Jeff Kanter only specified what three of the five levels would be, according to our peer blog Inside Facebook.

The three Kanter mentioned during a session at the Facebook Marketing Conference are: full access; publishing only, and page insights.

For those of you who might want to start planning ahead, we’ve got some ideas on how to allocate five tiers of access.
