how to add someone to restricted list on Facebook


Facebook have rolled out their new lists feature which we have already covered. With these new lists comes the added benefit of adding people to a restricted list. The usefulness of such a list on FB is very useful. The first person who tends to land in this list is your boss and maybe people you feel are stalking you. If you are sharing things that some people aught not to be aware of this is the list to go to. By default this list is empty and if you want to add people to this list you will need to physically add them.

This is a fantastic way to keep people away from your personal stuff without having to unfriend or block them. You can silently move them away from your fb life. People in your restricted list can only see posts you make public and info that you choose to make public. Even if they tag you in a post of video you will get a notification before it can go public. 


Will people know if you add them to Restricted list on Facebook.
No, they will not get to know.


How does Restricted List on Facebook work
It is very simple - instead of having to unfriend someone and become unpopular with them. Add them to the restricted list - this way they only get to see posts you make public. Many people put their Boss or Coworkers or kids on the Facebook restricted list.
