How To Find Who Follows You on Facebook

How to Find Who Follows Your Facebook Business Page

If you have a public Facebook business page, keeping track of your following is probably a must. However, the number of “likes” you receive may not tell you the whole story. Facebook users can follow a page without “liking” it and vice versa, so taking both metrics into account will give you a better overview of your progress. Let’s see how you can browse the followers of your business page on a PC:

  1. Head to Facebook and log in.
  2. Select More business settings under Settings.
  3. Click Pages in the sidebar. You’ll see your pages and their number of followers here.
  4. To get more info, select the page you want.
  5. Then click on View Page.
  6. Scroll down in the sidebar to find your page Settings.
  7. In the sidebar, find People and Other Pages.

You’ll be able to see who likes or follows your page here.

FAQs

Why can’t I see my followers on Facebook?

The “Followers” option will only appear on your personal profile if you have public followers. Make sure you have enabled public followers in your settings so people can follow you. Another reason you might not see your followers on a mobile device is an outdated app version. Check whether there are any Facebook updates available in the App Store or the Google Play Store.

Can I remove followers from my Facebook?

You can’t remove followers from your personal Facebook profile directly. However, you can ensure they won’t be able to interact with you by blocking them. If this sounds a little harsh, you can unblock them after blocking them – this will remove them from your followers list.

Business pages have a bit more control in this regard. You can remove followers on the same page where you can browse the list. Refer to the instructions above to find your business page followers.

Decide Who Will Lead and Follow

Whether you have a personal account or a business page, it’s important to know who follows you on Facebook. By doing so, you can keep strangers away from your personal posts or get an insight into the growth of your business. The instructions outlined above will help you with both.
