Let's look at the situation when you need an administrator or editor for your VKontakte group or public . Let's find out really working ways to find a smart admin or editor for a group . Before looking for an administrator, it is important to write down his key job responsibilities.

Typically, the administrator is required to first create and post posts in the group. That is, a person is given administrator or editor rights, and he, in turn, writes and publishes posts on the wall of your group. The editor’s tasks may also include interaction with the audience. Namely, working with comments. If this is a community of a company, then often on behalf of the group the admin answers questions in comments, topics and messages about the company’s work. In addition, sometimes the administrator’s tasks may include: holding competitions, sending out invitations, preparing reports and other tasks.

At the first stage, it is important to decide why exactly you need an administrator or editor and write down basic job descriptions for him. The simpler and clearer its work is, the cheaper it will cost you. Once you have decided what exactly you need an administrator for, you can begin your search.

Working methods on how to find a VK administrator or editor.

1. Search among subscribers. If you already have a subscriber base in your group, then you can offer them the admin role. Very often, in groups on entertainment topics with an established interested audience, there are people who want to serve as an admin or editor. Sometimes such people are ready to work for little money, in rare cases even just for an idea. This is the main advantage of this method. However, it is important to consider the disadvantages. The person you appoint to lead the group will most likely have no experience, and accordingly, the results may not suit you. If you do find a person who is ready to work for an idea, then you should take into account that work based on enthusiasm, as a rule, cannot last for any long time. Therefore, in commercial groups, this method is usually not used.

2. Advertising posts in other groups. If you are still interested in finding a more professional person, then it makes sense to attract people with experience. You can find such people in specialized communities. For example, in the Cerebro Target community, among the topics you can find proposals for group administration. Sometimes in specialized groups you come across threads where you can post an advertisement looking for an admin yourself. There are not many really smart groups that performers regularly watch. Most groups are abandoned and spammed, and looking for an administrator in such communities is unlikely to be an effective activity. Be extremely responsible in your search and selection process, as this can determine the success of your group in the future.

3. Freelance project. In addition to internal VK platforms, there are also external resources where professional freelancers gather. Freelancers are people who work online. Among them, including those who provide services for maintaining VKontakte groups professionally. Among the popular platforms now in demand are fl.ru, freelance.ru and kwork.ru. You need to register on the site and post your project. This can be done either paid or free, depending on the conditions of the specific platform. After posting your project, you will receive offers from freelancers. Among them you can select a performer for the job. It is important to understand that professional performers will not work for an idea. You will need to pay the person for the time he spends leading your group. Salary levels can vary greatly; on average, a full-fledged administrator costs from 5,000 rubles per month.

4. Copywriting exchanges. If your budget is very limited, and you really need an admin for the group and you don’t want to write the content yourself, then one of the most affordable options would be content exchanges. Of course, these are not admin services in the usual sense, but working with content is a large part of the administrator’s tasks. That is why a copywriting exchange is a real way to close the main work of running a group. Among the well-known exchanges where you can order content writing for your group are advego and qcomment. On content exchanges, you will pay not for the performer’s time, but for the result that you receive in the form of content that they write for you. On average, you can get a post for your group for 5-10 rubles. You create a project, set a price for creating a post, and different artists write content for your group. The peculiarity of exchanges is that the quality of content can vary greatly depending on which artist writes for you. If you want posts to be immediately published on behalf of the group, then you will have to do this yourself, since you will not be able to share access to the admin account publicly.

5. Outsourcing. The final option that we will talk about is solving group administration problems through outsourcing. Outsourcing, in simple words, is when a team of other people takes on a set of tasks related to the administration of the group. Prices for this kind of professional services depend on exactly what problems you need to solve. There are companies offering a full range of group management and promotion services. There are teams that specialize in certain types of work. In particular, our team specializes in writing and posting content in the group - these are wall posts, comments, topics and messages in discussions. The cost of a post is determined based on the specific requirements of the customer and averages 10 rubles. In terms of price, this is somewhat more expensive than what is offered on the exchange, but this service does not have the disadvantages that we discussed above. Namely, posts are posted on behalf of the group through the rights of the editor, which you give to our nickname. As a rule, individual performers are assigned to a project, and the quality of posts can be adjusted if necessary. more about our service for filling and maintaining VK groups by following the link.

Globally, all methods can be divided into 2 directions : with payment for hiring an administrator and with payment for results in the form of posts that are written to you. If we compare these 2 areas in terms of cost, then an administrator on staff can cost you from 5,000 rubles, and if you take only the writing of posts, then at the classic pace of 5 posts per day, it will cost about 1,500 rubles per month. It is important to understand that ordering the writing and placement of posts does not completely solve the administration problem, but it is a way to relieve yourself of the main routine and time expenditure.

Summarizing everything written above, we can talk for a long time about which method is best for solving the problems of a group administrator . Still, each group owner must decide this himself, try different options and find the optimal one for himself. With this I would like to conclude the article and wish you every success in the development of groups. You can find all the current services that our team provides on the page. For questions about ordering services, write ICQ 275129, VKontakte or Skype artek356.

What is good about the position of administrator on VKontakte?

Like other professions associated with remote work, it has many advantages:

1. You can make money doing what you love.
2. All earnings depend only on you. As you gain experience, your earnings can increase.
3. Flexible schedule.
4. You don't risk anything. For example, if you were to promote your community, there would be a possible risk of losing money.
5. Freedom of choice. You can choose the communities that you like.

And now in more detail

How much time does the average person spend on social networks? A lot, and some a lot, and what are they doing there? They look at funny pictures and videos, of course, it’s a personal matter for everyone, where, how and what to do, but it’s worth imagining that you can make very good money from this...

And you can earn a lot, gain experience in small groups and take on even more work, or offer your services to a well-known or well-known public.

The schedule is a controversial issue. On the one hand, you always need to be present in the group, meet new subscribers, communicate in the comments, and work with the proposed news. On the other hand, you don’t have to get up at 6 o’clock in the morning, run to the bus, and arrive after work wrung out.

You can distribute your work time as convenient for you, and with the help of various services, posting posts can be automated.

Another advantage of such work is that you do not risk financially, while people create groups on VKontakte to earn money, where they will undoubtedly have to invest money, nerves, and time. You can earn money here and now.

Yes, with proper and successful promotion, a public site can bring large, almost passive profits, but there is also a risk of losing all the money. I wrote about ways to make money from a group on VK in this article.

Freedom of choice, you will be able to refuse communities that you do not like, for example, of an erotic nature or something else, because there are tens of thousands of communities on the social network, there is definitely a choice. In a regular job, no one will give you the right to choose.

We’ve sorted out the main advantages, but is everything so good? Of course not, in any business there are both pros and cons.

How to add an admin from your phone

Today, you can manage a group from any smartphone, no matter where the admin is located. You can not have a computer at all and still run a business.

Administrators use their smartphones to communicate with clients, take orders, accept payments, and fill the wall with content.

Let's look at a diagram of how to add an admin to a group in contact from your phone.

Open the application from your smartphone, go to your list of groups.

See the gear in the upper right corner?

Click there!

The group control panel has opened, click on the “Participants” section

Before us are all the subscribers of our group, we find our future administrator among them. There are 3 dots next to the name, click there.

A window opens, click on “Assign as manager”

Here a page opens where you select the permissions for the admin, and we can also hide it or display it in contacts.

Here I also want to mention that it is “administrators” and not “moderators” and “editors” who have the greatest powers.

Have you made all the settings? Click on the checkmark at the top right.

Now you can add administrators from your smartphone.

Disadvantages of working as a group administrator on VKontakte.

There are not so many disadvantages, and most of them evaporate with experience:

1. Fairly high competition.
2. Requires skills and experience.
3. At the initial stage there will be a small income.

Despite the fact that this is still a young online profession, the competition here is still quite high, many people have already realized the great advantage of this income, so there is no need to hesitate, there are still available vacancies.

Without skill and experience, it’s difficult everywhere, absolutely everywhere where you can earn more or less decent money, at the initial stage, something will not work out, that’s okay. Start by taking a small group to work. Assess your strengths and abilities.

Yes, at first you will earn a little, but now it is not money that is important, but knowledge and experience, with it you will earn serious amounts, so be patient.

As you can see, these are not cons, but “minuses”. For those who are not scared, read on.

Let's start writing an appeal

The first thing you need to do to contact technical support is to click on the “help” section, which is located in the upper right corner of the screen near the “exit”. Thus, you can contact the administration in Contact or as they are called on the site itself with “support agents”. After you click on “help”, write briefly in the top field about your problem. Perhaps your question is quite frequently asked, and at this stage you can get an answer by choosing from the list of questions and answers below. If, nevertheless, none of the options is suitable, then you need to select the appropriate function, which is called “none of these options are suitable.” You will then be informed how long you need to wait for a response. On average this ranges from 24 to 48 hours. If you agree to wait a certain time, then you need to fill out a special form. First we write the topic. This is a succinct sentence that briefly describes your problem. Below, in the appropriate field, you can say about this problem in more detail so that the support agent understands your question as clearly as possible. You can, for example, thus file a complaint against a VK user. You can also attach files in the lower right corner, that is, these can be screenshots or photographs, to reveal the essence of your question in more detail. After you have entered the topic, described the problem in more detail and attached additional materials if necessary, you need to click on the “send” button. Your question will be queued for consideration.

What does it take to become an admin?

Each community owner puts forward his own requirements for a candidate, but there are basic ones that almost everyone requires:

1. Ability and desire to work in social networks, in particular VK.
2. Dedicate N number of hours to work, usually 6-8. Responsible approach.
3. Desire to learn.
4. Age. You must be at least an adult.
5. Knowledge of some programs such as Canva.

The first and most important thing is the desire to work; many employers are ready to train a person, but the desire to work should always be there. If you don’t have such a desire, go work in an office, most of them sit there with “sour faces”

All owners want their groups to have live communication with subscribers, respond to comments and questions in a timely manner, and therefore require a certain amount of time to be devoted to this work. Get ready for a full eight-hour working day, and how you organize your work will be so.

Social networks and the Internet are developing rapidly, rules and requirements are changing, including the management of groups and advertising. And of course, everyone wants to see an administrator quickly adapting to new conditions and fashion. Simply put, you must be on trend.

Nobody wants to see an admin who is “dumb” at work. If you are an easy learner, you have a great future ahead of you.

In general, many, and what’s more, almost all information businessmen, advertising specialists and everyone who makes money on the Internet, have a stereotype that an adequate solvent audience begins at 23 years old.

I agree that one size does not fit all, but in most cases this is true. If you have less, don’t be upset, you can always contact the owner of the public and prove your adequacy and focus on work.

When administering communities, you will need to publish a lot of content and take it from other communities, of course you can, but there should be more original posts.

Therefore, you will have to quickly make, for example, a banner or a meme. Various programs help us with this, including Photoshop. But it is quite complicated, I suggest you try Canva, I wrote about how to work with it here.

If you meet all these requirements, then you will make an excellent admin.

Who is it suitable for?

This kind of work is perfect for freelancers, young mothers on maternity leave, or those who don’t want to go back to work after maternity leave, but giving birth to another child is too much for that. And in general for those who don’t want to gather dust in the office or ruin their health at the factory. And also for those who are looking for part-time work.

VKontakte administrator: requirements

• Preferably over 18 years of age. There is a well-established opinion among public page owners that “under 18 years of age are frivolous people who are not capable of performing their work competently.”
• Literacy - most likely, you will have to fill the public with texts, articles, quotes or other information. If you don't know how to spell words correctly, it will be very difficult for you.
• Responsibility – every day you need to fill the public, the audience will wait for new posts in their news feed. To automate this process, there are special sites, which will be discussed later.
• Learning Ability – If everything is new to you, you need to quickly understand new things. VKontakte sometimes changes the interface and some important points that affect the promotion of public pages. Big changes in the management of public pages are expected soon, so you need to quickly get your bearings and use everything to your advantage.
• Knowledge of Photoshop is a huge plus. Some public sites don't require this, but the better you are at it, the higher your income will be. It is enough to be able to work with templates, fonts and know several useful functions for processing photos - and you are already in demand.
• Finding information – for publics you need to find a lot of information. You cannot constantly take content from other public pages - the audience will be inactive, so you need to search on other sites.
• Register on the website sociate.ru, study the work of the autopost to automate your work.

Responsibilities of an administrator on VKontakte

Of course, as in any job you will have responsibilities, let’s figure out what they are:

1. Develop community.
2. Provoke people to be active.
3. Search or create and publish content on time.
4. Negotiate advertising in the group.
5. Sometimes advertise your community.

These are the main functions that you must perform, perhaps some additional ones, by agreement. The first and most important thing is to develop the community so that it does not stand still, but moves forward.

Read the article : Making money with VKtarget

In principle, if you fulfill the remaining responsibilities, the group will continue to grow. If people in a group comment on posts, repost them and like them, their friends begin to join and so on down the chain.

But for this there must be interesting content, which of course you will have to look for. As well as responding to requests from advertisers regarding advertising placement.

Rarely, but still there are requirements to advertise a community on VK. It’s not that easy, and people specifically learn this, even for money. But having such a skill, the salary should also be significantly higher.

Where to look for a VKontakte administrator job

There are several proven options.

1. Yes, on VKontakte itself! Go to freelance groups - they are constantly looking for admins, often full-time. You can also leave your resume in job search discussions.

2. Another option is copywriting exchanges, where they look for those who will publish posts in communities. The work will take place through the exchange - which means you have a 100% guarantee that the customer will not be deceived.

3. By word of mouth. Surely among your friends and acquaintances there are those who have opened their own business or run a VK community. Pay attention to urban communities - they also often require admins. In short, make full use of your personal connections.

How much does a group administrator earn on VKontakte?

Everyone is waiting for the answer to this question, rubbing their hands: “how much can you earn?” Of course, there is no specific figure; the salary depends on many factors: the size and tasks of the group, your experience and degree of employment. Some people write from 3000 to 6000, some say from 10,000 to 15,000.

I made it simpler, found advertisements for this vacancy and looked at how much the group owners were willing to part with. For example, on AVITO:

Another

On another site:

As you can see, the amounts vary. But the fact that income from running groups on VK can replace your main job is for sure. For example, you have already gained experience and take two groups with a payment of 25,000 each, a total of 50,000 rubles, working from home, I think, is not bad at all.

But at the initial stage, be prepared for a salary of 3,000 rubles, or even less.

How can you attract clients through VK?

With the importance of social We have figured out networks and it is difficult to overestimate it. Now I want to address the issue of promoting the activities of an individual entrepreneur or legal entity in VK.

If individuals providing any services can advertise through a personal page, then companies still choose to create groups. This happens most often. But it also happens that one person creates a group where he not only demonstrates his work, but also finds like-minded people, partners and, of course, customers.

Where to look for vacancies?

There are many options here, you can search on AVITO, YULA and similar sites. There are many vacancies on freelance exchanges. For example, on KWORK. An excellent platform, you can get a job as an admin there for a month or even a week, create your ad and go. I wrote about how to work on this site here.

You can search for an employer yourself and contact the communities you like. Another interesting way to attract a customer is by properly designing your profile on social networks.

Article on the topic : How to find a job using a social network

I advise you to create a portfolio, design it beautifully, and when contacting employers, show it or send it to group owners.

“I would like to become a pilot, let them teach me” or where I can get training

Is this activity difficult? Do you really need to learn this? Practice shows that if you wish and have sufficient computer skills, but without special education, you can earn from $100 to $500 per month for running one group.

For some, this will be enough. Those who understand that “killing time” on the Internet simply for entertainment is an unaffordable luxury, and who want to become a pro in this area and thereby ensure a decent life for themselves, will need special training.

Among the numerous courses and trainings teaching this profession on the Internet, perhaps the most popular is the “VKontakte Administrator” course of Natalia Odegova’s online school 1day1step.

After completing the course and receiving a certificate, you can safely enter the freelancing space with a serious “trump card” in your hands, because already during the training, students of the course find customers and receive money.

However, “a bad soldier is one who does not want to become a general.” If you are used to planning and are already looking far into the future, you want to know all the intricacies of Internet marketing, and understand promotion technologies on social networks, the “SMM Specialist” course will be useful to you.

These online intensive courses will allow you to significantly raise the bar and work remotely at a higher level.

Useful programs for working with groups on social networks.

There are many programs and services on the Internet that can make life much easier for those running groups on social networks. Here are some of them that I have tested:

1. Sociate. A system for advertising in VK, Odnoklassniki, Instagram groups.
2. SMMBoX. Excellent service with huge capabilities, a real assistant to the admin. The ability to search for content and scheduled posting, you can schedule posts for at least a week. I recommend it.
3. VKtarget. Service for increasing subscribers, likes and reposts. Quite high quality, there is a possibility of wholesale order. It’s good to create activity with it, the main thing is not to overdo it. I wrote about him here.
4. Bosslaike. Its advantage is speed and cheapness and even freeness. You can also create an activity. More details here.
5. Quick Sender Ultra. A powerful tool for promotion on VKontakte. Possibility of parsing for various categories, inviting, mailings in PM. You can write a separate article about the advantages. The program is paid, but if you are serious about promoting groups, it will pay for itself many times over.

Of course, these are not all programs and services, but these are those that I have personally tested, and I am not afraid to recommend them to you.
