On the website and mobile application of the social network VKontakte, there are often errors in the operation of certain functions, including problems with opening specific sections. One of them is the inability to open and view the list of friends on your own or other people’s pages. In this article, we will talk about the main causes and several ways to resolve this problem.
Method number 1 on how to raise a friend on VK
This is a long term method.
It may take more than 1 day to raise a VK friend to 1st place using this method. You don’t have to constantly be on the social network - just go to your page every hour and go to the profile of the person you want to put in first place on your VKontakte friends list.
It is better to access a person’s personal page through the “Friends” tab. Gradually, click by click (provided that you visit his profile more often than other people’s pages), this friend rises to the list of important friends and takes a top position.
A friend of mine on VKontakte always has one girl on his list of friends.
I can refresh the page many times and in rare cases it will not appear in the list of his friends, although he has 300-odd of them. what does it mean?

Method No. 3 how to move a VK friend to the list of important friends
This is the easiest method to change the order of important friends. To implement it, you need to take a person from your friends, and then add him again.
Then it will automatically move to the top. And if this does not happen, just write a few messages to the person, like the post, and he will rise up the list.
The fact is that VKontakte works on the principle that new people and those with whom you most often come into contact become important friends.
So if you want your friend to rise to the top and not find out that you did this on purpose, then visit his page more often, and visit the pages of other profiles less often. If you do this together, then remove him from your friends list, and then add him again - and the Vk algorithm will work in the direction you need.
Have you ever known that VK has a number of friends? Yes, yes, at the time of writing, it amounts to 10,000 users including friend requests. What if there are more friends? This means they will be your subscribers.
Finding users with 10 thousand friends is, to put it mildly, not so easy. For most, this figure is much lower - 200-500 user-friends. But today we won’t talk about friends, but about how a list of friends for a user is formed. Here, as it turns out, everything is far from so simple.
Why It’s Worth Adding Friends on VKontakte
We all know that VKontakte is “dirt,” an addiction, a time killer, a source of spam and earnings, and an indispensable means of communication. Why do we use contact? No. 1 - a means of communication with friends. We communicate with many people, using a maximum of 200 words in circulation, building up the number of friends so that no one superfluous, under any circumstances, gets on the list, otherwise someone will suddenly see that we are friends with someone we don’t know and will laugh...
Friends, the years 2008-2012 have already passed... using VKontakte with 200 friends is a thing of the past... Your personal VKontakte page is the most common media channel, depending on the size of the audience you choose, either 200 people or 10,000 people (limitation by the VKontakte administration. If you want to be hidden and only for your own people, then welcome to Odnoklassniki)) )
I am touched by girls who insert their photos from the sea so that as many people as possible can see them, something like PR, and limit their list of friends by not adding strangers... It turns out to be a paradox, we take photos so that many people can see them, but new friends who can Constantly look at the following photos, do not add.
Friends, look at our Earth, the VIRTUAL WORLD has long taken root, it has little to do with the real one. The only connection is that the virtual world cannot exist without the real one. Therefore, creating a VKontakte page in order to have a presence in the virtual world, having only 50 friends, and writing in response to new requests to add friends “I don’t meet strangers” is the height of irrationality, something like “bees against honey.”
Undoubtedly, applications from new friends should be carefully reviewed so that they are not bots or attackers. VKontakte itself takes care of this - read here.
I add friends on VKontakte constantly, I strive to have another channel of additional traffic. I already wrote about how to get traffic from VKontakte in this article.
The question arises: Why are there 10,000 friends in the virtual world? Why not refuse those who offer friendship? Meaning?
Here's an example: my friend, a musician, created 3 accounts for himself, adding 120 friends a day, on average 60 out of 120 responded. According to the official VKontakte rules, you can add 40 people per day to one account, but he added at 11 am and at 1 one in the morning, and for some reason I could do this 2 times a day. In total, in 8.5 months he had only 30,000 friends on 3 accounts.
It would seem that it makes sense? But he added all his friends from one city, and after 8 months he had a VKontakte account in his hands comparable in size to a regional newspaper!!! With an audience of 30,000 people. Any post on the wall is read by many friends, that is, with 1 post you can potentially achieve 30,000 eye contacts with any post on your wall. And my friend was able to promote among friends from the same city the videos he created and the concerts he gave. And after a while, all the city friends, seeing his high-quality musical product, began to accept his group as “their own” and actively distribute it according to the principle of viral marketing, as if defending their city. The more popular it becomes, the more popular the city will become, and therefore, in part, every resident.
I don’t encourage spamming or aggressively adding friends on VKontakte... just think that instead of stupidly sitting on VKontakte and waiting for photos from friends or messages, you can increase the audience that will unwittingly follow your photos, statuses, notes, videos, audio recordings, you free pr - eat yourself!
The number of 10,000 people in VKontakte friends is useful for all professions in the media, bloggers, SEOs, models, musicians, journalists, etc.
Invitations to groups
A great advantage of having a large number of friends is that you can invite these friends to any of your groups. VKontakte allows up to 40 people per day.
Schoolboy on Facebook
It is immediately clear that American schoolchildren began to understand the power of social networks as media earlier, for example, on the social network Facebook, they are immediately actively added to the friends of everyone who studies at their school. Moreover, it doesn’t matter whether they know each other or not, they, on the contrary, use Facebook so that later they can somehow find out about them. Their personal Facebook page is their personal local media channel.
Safety of friends
VKontakte has significantly increased security and the fight against spam, so now the problem of security in adding friends is widely promoted within the site. The main thing is, do not open suspicious links and do not respond to requests - to give money or do something of a criminal or immoral nature. To broaden your horizons, read the article on VKontakte security.
Earning money on VKontakte
I don’t really like making money directly from my VKontakte account, but at the same time, such an opportunity exists. I described it in more detail in the article about making money on the VKontakte group. All exchanges accept not only groups, but also personal pages.
Dependence on VKontakte
As hard as it may be to understand, the number of people dependent on VKontakte will increase. Evening use of VKontakte will negatively affect sleep, and sleep will injure the nervous system. Therefore, take a closer look at your health. Also read this article - How to Overcome Social Media Addiction.
I recommend adding a lot of friends on VKontakte only after 18 years of age, because there are still plenty of inadequate people, but at 18 you already begin to understand enough how to “separate the cutlets from the flies.”
Who should you add as a friend on VKontakte?
ONLY “LIVING” PEOPLE! Don't add bots! Look through the walls of people you add or who are added to you, there should be signs of real communication, and not just advertising posts. Do not add travel agency advertising accounts or sales, they will not bring you any benefit for your personal media channel.
And remember, as one of his contemporaries said, “all the content in your life, except for the obituary, is PR”))) Happy blogging!
Important friends
You've probably asked yourself why some users are ranked higher than others? This is explained simply - at the top of the friends list are those users with whom you communicate most often. However, if you see a user at the top of the list with whom you have not corresponded for a long time, he did not get there by mistake - in addition to communication, other factors influence the sorting, including likes to friends, replies in comments, reposts, etc. Therefore, the list of important friends (and it is called that way) will contain those users to whom, roughly speaking, you pay more attention than others.
There is an important exception to this rule: the list also includes those users whom you recently added as friends. This is done so that you do not forget about them and communicate. If you do not communicate with them, then over time the list will be reformed and these users will be lower on the list of friends.
Why can people be added as friends if you don't know each other?
This is not obvious to all network users, but not every VKontakte account is real. A lot of pages are controlled by so-called “bots” - simple programs designed to send messages and collect information about users, or by real people performing the functions of a bot. Bots themselves do not cause any harm; they are advertising and management tools. Real people can also be added, they have enough reasons for this.
IMPORTANT!
Remember that you can open your contact list at any time and clear it of unnecessary people, as well as obvious advertising, empty and “dead” (deleted) pages with a couple of clicks. It is advisable to do this regularly, especially if your account has no restrictions on wall posts, etc.
Advertising bots - how to identify them?
It is very easy to distinguish an advertising account from a regular one by the profile avatar and the information available on the page. Typically, the page is decorated with a photograph with a company logo or an image of a product; the account name itself may contain advertising. To be sure, go to the page and look at the publications. If these are continuous reposts or posts on a topic advertised by a bot, you can be sure that such an “interlocutor” will not offer you anything interesting.
Also, most bots, simultaneously with a friend request, begin a dialogue with a large standard advertising message, offering the service as clearly and comprehensively as possible. There is also a non-standard approach - an advertising agent can imitate a regular conversation, during which he tries to sell the same service, but using an individual approach.
PR agents
This category is similar to the previous one, but they do not advertise goods and services, but their own projects. These could be interest groups, local communities dedicated to some small business like a nail salon or a “design agency” for creating unique avatars.
Such users do not have the goal of attracting you specifically; they are engaged in group mailing. The more accounts follow the link, the better. They reveal their main offer in a message, and add them as friends for the sake of quantity.
People with thousands of "friends"
Social media is just an imprint of society and not a separate universe. VKontakte operates exactly the same social laws as in the real world. The more friends there are on an account, the more prestigious it is considered. It’s even cooler to have a large number of subscribers - simple observers of the page.
IMPORTANT!
They can be added with specific requests - for example, send a personal message with anything from a symbol to an emoticon, like a post on a page, or exchange likes for an avatar. This is a common boost to popularity.
If someone you don’t know is added to you, and their page doesn’t look like an advertisement, then most likely their goal is to get as many friends as possible to their page. Their quality is unimportant; in the list of these you can find hundreds of deleted pages.
Friends online
If we are talking about a list of friends who are online, it is sorted by the “importance” of the friend, that is, there is no difference in the first case, except that the list will show only those friends who are online at the moment time.
The formation of a list of friends in the “Online Friends” window is probably formed in a random order - with each update the list may completely change. We dare to assume that this was done for a reason, but so that when you see one of your old acquaintances, you decide to write to him.
It became known what happened to the list of VKontakte friends
The fact is that users decided that VK had changed the principles of forming lists of friends and groups, and bombarded the microblogging service Twitter with indignant posts. “I have some unimportant ones in my important ones,” subscribers complained everywhere. The developers of the social network VKontakte presented users with another “surprise”. ...At the top of the page were those communities with the most subscribers. Previously, when entering these lists, those groups and those friends to whom the user contacted more often than others were highlighted in the first positions. From now on, communities are ranked by the number of subscribers. The same situation has developed with the list of communities to which users are subscribed. Note that due to the large number of complaints about the innovation, the company’s management is already thinking about returning the old algorithm.
Can I change my friends list?
The list of important friends itself, and friends in general, is generated exclusively automatically. But you can influence the rankings. For example, the more you communicate with the user, the more often you like him, repost him, etc., the higher he will be on the list.
Important friends on VKontakte are detected automatically. When friends, family, and a loved one appear first on the list, it's convenient. But relationships may change for various reasons, and the need to constantly see a person’s page may no longer be necessary. In this article we will tell you how to remove from your important VKontakte friends those users whom you do not want to see at the top of the list.
Find out who is on a friend’s “important” list
Well, now let’s analyze what best friends mean and how to find out this list from your friend. When we add new friends to ourselves, VK automatically offers us to sort them.
That is, we can indicate who the added person is to us:
- family member;
- close friend;
- work colleague;
- acquaintances from university, etc.
- You can find out who belongs to your friend’s “best” friends section on VKontakte by opening his friends list.
- You can do this by visiting your friend’s page and viewing his list of friends.
- You can also use your own list of friends - opposite your friend’s avatar, you need to click on the “view friends” icon.
- After going to the list of your friend’s friends, you will see icons next to the photo symbolizing “important” friends, “relatives,” etc.
- Your avatar will be at the top of the list, and you will immediately see if you are among the “best” friends.
- So, by reviewing all your friends, you will find out who is on the “important” list and who is in the category of ordinary friends.
Many users do not pay attention to all these categories, objectively believing that the “best” friend does not need general publicity. And perhaps they are right!
Previously, the contact list was sorted by user rating. Its display could be seen under the avatar of the user’s page (Figure 1). It depended on activity, the presence of contact information, descriptions and completion of certain fields, as well as on the number of friends. Thus, the person among friends with the highest ratings took first place, and then in descending order.
By what principle does VKontakte identify important friends?
When forming a list of important friends, the algorithm takes into account the following factors:
- how often do you correspond with the user;
- how often do you visit his page;
- how often do you leave about and comments under user posts.
In addition, if you recently added a person, he will also appear in the top, but not higher than the important ones identified by the algorithm. If you don’t have much contact with the user, he will gradually drop down the list. This is one of the options for removing a person from your important friends on VKontakte. By the same principle, you can, on the contrary, be active in relation to other users, like and leave comments so that their rating increases and they rise to the place of an uninteresting user in the list of important ones. But both the first and second methods require a lot of time.
Let's look at more effective and simpler methods.
Displaying someone else's friends list
There is very widespread information on the Internet that if you open a list of other people’s friends, the first place will be the one whose page the owner visits most often. We have to disappoint you, but no, this would violate certain user rights, in particular the confidentiality of personal information. Your page will always be displayed first, if you are friends with this user (Figure 3) and this does not depend on the number of his visits to your page. Further sorting occurs by rating, namely the overall popularity of other users on the list.
First way
To do this, follow these instructions on how to remove a user from important VKontakte friends:
- Go to the “News” section and find the post of the person you want to remove from important ones. If a person rarely posts anything, go to his page and select any post.
- Click on the ellipsis in the upper right corner of the recording block.
- From the list that appears, select “This is not interesting.”
Ready! Wait a few hours (8 to 24) for the system to update the user's information and lower their rating.
Second way
The second way to remove a person from your important friends on VKontakte solves the problem radically. To do this, you just need to remove it. If there is a need to save contacts, then add the person again. The user will not receive notifications about your actions, and he will not know anything, and will be left off your list.
Keep in mind that if you continue to be active with the user you want to remove from important, soon his rating will increase and he will again take his place in the list. And remember: although it is useful to know how to remove unwanted users from important VKontakte friends, the order of friends in reality is much more important than the order of friends on the social network.
I don’t know if you are aware, but you have the opportunity, with the help of simple actions, to remove your friend from the top positions of the VKontakte friends list. All you have to do is, with a couple of clicks, lower your friend's priority in the news section, after which he will drop to the bottom of your friends list. Let's look at 3 ways in which this can be done.
Instruction No. 1: through demonstrated activity:
The most common way to remove a friend from the top of your friends list is to promote other friends to the top.
This is all done for a very long time and manually, because this requires visiting friends’ pages as often as possible, rating and commenting on their publications and communicating with them through personal messages. The more actions you take with certain users, the higher they become on your friends list. This is how you can displace your enemy. Just be active on the pages of other friends on your list, and as for your enemy, forget about him. For the method to work, you must not maintain contact with this user, otherwise he may not only remain in the same place in your list, but also jump even higher!
In general, a little time spent, a little patience and a little caution - and you will reach your cherished goal!
Instruction No. 2: through the news section:
You don't have to do everything manually.
You all have a personal life and more important things to do, but to remove your friend from the top positions of the VKontakte friends list there is an even simpler function. This time we will need an entry from our enemy in the news feed. Unfortunately, this method does not always work. If a person has not published new posts on his wall for a long time, this method will not help, so use the third method. But if your friend is actively posting new posts or has posted recently, you can scroll down the feed and easily find one of his posts. But to make his post easier to find, do the following:
When you have found your friend's post or have hidden all other news to find your friend's post, follow the instructions below:
Instruction No. 3: through the user page:
This method is much simpler than the first two.
However, in order not to rack your brains and save a lot of time, it is better to use this method right away! Here everything is done like this: Due to the peculiarities of the VKontakte social network, the order of friends does not change immediately, but several hours after the manipulations have been performed. So after you have done the above steps, just be patient!
After some time, your friend will move down from the top of your friends list. It has been verified that a friend can be either in the middle of your list or at the very end. It all depends on the activity you show towards this person. For example, if you just added a new friend and he's in the top of your friends list, hiding his news will drop him to the very bottom of your friends list. And if a person was in the top because you often visit his page, send him messages and like his photos, after hiding the news he will be approximately in the middle of the list or slightly higher.
It is worth noting that the methods described above also work with communities. That is, by lowering the priority of your groups, meetings or public pages, you will move them to the bottom of your list of communities.
The social network “VKontakte” is one of the most popular Internet projects in all of Russia and the countries of the post-Soviet space. Every day, year after year, the resource is used by millions of users who go to the vk.com website not only to communicate with each other, but also to find out news, listen to their favorite audio recordings, watch a movie or TV series, find out something interesting and even make plans. where to go to update your wardrobe.
At the moment, everyone can add up to 10 thousand other “inhabitants” of the social network as friends, and, as statistics show, the average user of the resource has about 200-300 people as friends. However, when looking through the list of your VKontakte friends, you may unexpectedly discover that they are located in different orders and can sometimes change places. Why does this happen and how is this entire list formed?
Knock out from the top with one click
There is another way, although it will not work immediately, but after a couple of hours. Go to the victim’s page and select Actions
field
Hide News
.
You can also return the news of this user to your feed and wait for VKontakte to perform the necessary manipulation and demote your friend, knock him out of the top. Choose any method and write reviews in the comments. I hope the information was useful.

Every day millions of users visit the social network VKontakte. They communicate with each other, find out the news, listen to their favorite audio recordings, watch movies, TV series, visit interest groups, learn something interesting, and make purchases without leaving the VK network.
Many young readers are interested in the question of how to recognize important friends in VK from a friend? Or which of my friends am I in the best friends section of?
Let's first understand what these terms mean.
Important friends
Important VKontakte friends are formed from a general list of friends with whom you communicate most often. This is not necessarily personal correspondence; communication refers to all types of activity carried out in relation to a specific person.
This includes:
- Viewing news, photos;
- Comments;
- Reposts;
- Likes;
- Login to the page.
Moreover, activity can be shown on both sides. That is, if a friend from your list visits your wall, leaves comments, likes, he automatically falls into the category of important friends.
In addition, all newly added friends will be in the important category for some time, until the system determines that you are not interested in each other's posts.
All important friends are at the top of the list of mutual friends. When new friends are added, they go to the very top of the list, so that you don’t “lose” them or forget that they were added to you.
Is it possible to recognize a friend's important friends?
How to recognize important friends in VK from a friend? You can find out how important a friend is from your friend's list by looking at his friends list. But this does not give a hundred percent guarantee that they are really important to him.
Since your friend may have recently added them, or they have shown interest in your friend. In order for you to be among your important friends, all you need to do is visit his page, write comments on posts, and like him.
Take a closer look at your list of VK friends. Did you notice at the top of the list those with whom you did not communicate, did not visit them?
It is quite possible that they are your “fans”; they are interested in what you write about and what you publish. By showing constant interest in you, they will be among your “important” friends for a long time.
I hope now you understand how to recognize important friends in VK from a friend, how to be on the list of important friends yourself?
How to find out who is a friend's best friend
Now let’s look at what best friends are, how to recognize best friends in VK from a friend. When adding friends, VKontakte offers us the opportunity to “sort” friends. That is, you can indicate that the person being added is you:
- Relative;
- Best friend;
- Colleague;
- A friend at university, and so on.
You can find out who is in the “best” friends category of your VKontakte friend by going to your friend’s friends list.
You can do this by going to a friend’s page, opening the list of all his friends, or by opening your friends list, opposite the avatar of the person you need, select the “see friends” option.
When you go to your friend's friends list, you will see icons next to the photos indicating "best" friends, "colleagues", etc.
Your avatar will be first in the list, you will be able to immediately see if this mark is next to your image.
So, after looking through all your “best” friends, you will understand who also has you as their “best” friend, and who has you as an ordinary friend.
But don’t be too upset that one of your friends didn’t check the “best friend” box when adding you as a friend.
Many do not attach importance to such marks, rightly believing that the “best” friend does not need general publicity or special emphasis.

Many young Internet users are wondering: is it possible to find out the list of best friends from your friend on VK? Or did one of my friends put me in the important category? In this article, I will answer these questions and share my experience in identifying important friends among my acquaintances on the VKontakte social network. First, you need to figure out what these terms actually mean.
As it was before
Before answering the question asked above, I would like to remind you how the list of VKontakte friends was formed several years earlier. Just a few years ago, people appearing in a user's friends list were sorted by rating. Everything is clear here: the higher the user’s page rating, the higher he was displayed in the list of friends. Ratings could be obtained by filling out information on your own page or by purchasing additional votes. Later, it was decided to abandon the rating, which greatly upset users who bought a large number of votes and/or gave them to other “inhabitants” of the social network.
How is the friends list formed now?
Now the list of friends on the most popular social network is formed in a different way
: The first positions in the list are those users with whom you communicate most often. However, such sorting of the VK friends list may puzzle some users. For example, some people wonder why a person with whom communication is extremely rare is so high on the list. The answer is simple - when creating a list, not only messages are taken into account, but also likes, page views, replies, and comments on posts. It turns out that the first person on your list of friends may not only be the user with whom you do not communicate that much.
However, there is one small exception to this rule: users whom you recently added to your friends list are usually located in 5th or 6th place on the list so that, according to the developers of the social network, you do not lose sight of them.
How to change the sort order of your friends list
If you wish, you can increase your position on the list.
a certain friend. To do this, it’s enough to communicate with him more often, visit his page, be active (like, repost, comment on posts/photos).
Thus, after a short period of time, the selected user will take first place in the list of your friends. You can do it the other way around.
Anyone can view the list of your VKontakte friends. And see who is in the top positions. If you are not satisfied that some users occupy the first places, they need to be removed from there. Now I will show you several working methods.
Is it possible to change the order?
After everything has become clear about sorting VKontakte friends, we can talk about whether this order can be changed. Unfortunately, the developers of the social network did not provide this function, so you cannot change the order of friends yourself.
If you want to keep someone close to you at the top of your friends list, try to communicate with them more. Otherwise, keep communication to a minimum. However, do not forget that no social networks can replace real communication with friends and people close to you!
