Who is the owner of VKontakte now. How to manage a group in VK and keep order? How to manage a group in contact from your phone

Hello friends!

In today's article I will talk about the settings of the VKontakte group. Where to find them and what needs to be indicated in them in order to more effectively advance in VK. In general, the information will definitely be useful, so read below.

What are the settings for and where are they located

Initially, when you create communities, you immediately get into the settings of the VKontakte group and there you need to set all the necessary data. In addition, usually the group settings are constantly changing depending on the tasks, and I will tell you where to find them later.

In the screenshot below, I showed where you can get into your community settings, namely by clicking the “Community Management” button under your community avatar (in the case of a public page, there will be an inscription “Page Management”.

Basic settings of the VKontakte community

Let's go through the basic settings of the VKontakte community.

Other community settings

Now let's look at other tabs. Members tab. Here you can see who is in your community, and if necessary, remove someone from the community.

In principle, these are the main settings for the VKontakte community. You can easily deal with them yourself, but if suddenly you don’t work in social networks at all and you need promotion, then you can safely contact us.

I provide consultations and also help promote VKontakte communities.

I hope that this article was useful for you and you share the link with it in social networks. Also, do not forget to subscribe to blog updates to keep abreast of all events.

That's all for now, everyone!

Good day to all, my dear friends and visitors to my blog site. How are your communities doing there? Yes Yes. Filled with followers? I hope so, because today we will learn how to manage a group in VK, keep its order, in general, how to become a mayor and a sheriff at the same time.

All control levers are contained in the eponymous point of your community. You just need to enter your group and select the item "Community Management".

Information

In this block, you simply change the information about your group, i.e. You can change the name, address, subject, type of displayed content. I already talked about this in. By the way, that's just the address of the group I'll change, since such an opportunity presented itself.

Members

Here we will act as real sheriffs, namely, to follow the participants. First, be sure to look at the participants for the presence of dogs. Remember I said in mine that when you add people from the Olike service, some of them will turn into dogs. You are welcome. This is how they started showing up.

Remove these dogs from the community. This is rubbish, and rubbish must be taken out of the house. Also here. Keep your community clean. You can also delete other objectionable people if they are guilty and you do not need them.

But here we are as a sheriff, so we can not only expel, but also appoint assistants to ourselves. When the group grows, it can be difficult to lead it alone, so you can take on an assistant or group administrator. To do this, click in front of the person you need (you can find him by searching) "Appoint as leader".

You will open a new window where you will have to select the type of manager to be appointed:

• Moderator - removes materials that he considers unnecessary for the community.
• Editor - can not only delete and edit materials, but also write and publish materials himself. In addition, he can edit and change the main photo of the group.
• Administrator - Well, this view can do everything, even appoint new leaders.

By clicking on "Display in content block" you can see a link to the page of this person in the block "Contacts".

Black list

Here you can send delinquent boys and girls to the black list. Moreover, you can send them here either for a certain time, for example, for an hour, or forever. To do this, you simply need to go to the page of the user you want to punish and copy the address of his page. After that, paste this address into a special line and click "Add to blacklist".

A new window will open for you, where you will have to set the blocking period (for example, Week) and the reason for being blacklisted (for example, insult). Well, at the same time, explain to the person why he received a ban in the comments, for example, “What are you doing, you kind of scoundrel? Ofigel or what? Well, I'm joking) The comment must be adequate to leave.

By the way, if you do not want to see this villain in the group at all, then you can leave him on the list forever. Many people think that it is easier to remove, but in the case of a normal removal, it can always return. So add it to the list too.

Links

Look, here is still my hanging crocodile, which I installed from the Olike service when I needed to fill the group with the first subscribers.

Well, that's about all I wanted to tell you about managing a group. Everything seems to be absolutely simple. What do you think?

So you can already safely administer your group in VK. You already know all the basics. But if you want to do it on a professional level, that administer other people's communities on a paid basis, then it's best to go through professional 2-month training, where you will be taught how to properly administer groups, how to find employers, how to present yourself, etc.

Well, I say goodbye to you. I hope you liked the article, so do not forget to subscribe to blog article updates and share with friends on social networks. And be sure to check out other blog posts. You will surely find something interesting for yourself. Good luck to you. Bye Bye!

Sincerely, Dmitry Kostin

Today, a failure was recorded in the work of the social network "VKontakte". Also, the Snapster photo application, released by the developers of VKontakte two weeks ago, did not work. Earlier it was reported that VKontakte is trying to restrict users from going to the Instagram photo service. Now some users have links to photos from Instagram in posts and direct messages are published inactive.

Meanwhile, in general, Russian social networks are beating social networksZuckerberg and Brina. Last year, the audience of Vkontakte grew by 19% and exceeded 66 million, while the number of Odnoklassniki users amounted to 45.6 million people, which is 9% more than in 2013. Vkontakte also saw an increase in the share of mobile users, from 57% in 2013 to 71% last year.

The network membership is interesting. We have previously noted that .

WHO OWNS VKONTAKTE?

Vkontakte LLC was established on January 19, 2007. According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, the founders were the son and father Vyacheslav and Mikhail Mirilashvili(60% and 10% of the authorized capital, respectively), Lev Leviev(10%) and Pavel Durov (20%).

Reference. Durov's profile was registered first in the Vkontakte.ru system, the third - his former classmate Vyacheslav (Itskhak) Mirilashvili, then moved to Israel due to threats, graduated in 2006 Tufts University, USA.

Lev Leviev - was born in Volgograd in 1984, studied at the same school with Mirilashvili in Tel Aviv.

Mikhail Mikhilovich Mirilashvili (Misha Kutaissky) - was born in 1960 in Georgia. Lives in Leningrad (St. Petersburg) since 1978. A pediatrician by training. Married, two children. Religion: Judaism. This "authoritative entrepreneur" kept the gambling business in Moscow and St. Petersburg, was the president of the Russian Video company, sponsored the elections Starovoitova, replaced the president of the Russian Jewish Society Vladimir Gusinsky(Mirilashvili has dual citizenship of Russia and Israel). Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Petromir Holding (pharmaceuticals, chemistry, medicine, furniture production, construction, real estate, new technologies, restaurant and hotel business); President of the CONTI corporation (entertainment, gambling and club business); co-owner of the St.Petersburg Open tennis tournament (ATP-Tour series, the largest in the world). He was a member of the management of the company LUKoil-North-West-nefteprodukt.

In 2001, Mirilashvili was accused of kidnapping two people who kidnapped his father. The murder charge was later dropped, and the sentence was reduced from 12 to 8 years. In the very first interview given after his release, he declared that he had become "even more than before, a Jew."

Together in 2013 M. Freeman, G. Khan and other Jewish oligarchs. Included in .

FINANCIAL INDICATORS

According to Alberta Popkova, co-owner of the site Odnoklassniki.ru, the costs of such projects amount to millions of dollars a year, investments will pay off through advertising. And Vkontakte.ru makes money with the help of a subsidiary recruitment agency.

Mikhail Ravdonikas, the public relations coordinator for Vkontakte.ru, said at the time that the agency's revenue had doubled monthly to $50,000 a month. Vkontakte and Odnoklassniki became a phenomenon in 2007. According to the TNS Web Index report, in January 2007, the Moscow daily audience of Yandex amounted to 2.097 million visitors, Mail.ru 2.06 million, Odnoklassniki 1.653 million and Rambler 1.032 million. Gallup does not evaluate the audience of Vkontakte.ru .

Leviev and Mirilashvili separately benefited from the fact that in 2007 they created the Selectel company and opened a data center to meet the needs of Vkontakte in data processing and storage. The social network completely switched to it by 2009 and until the launch of its own data center in 2012, it depended on a single service provider. This allowed Selectel to become a large company with 11% of the data center market by the number of server racks by the end of 2011.

In 2010, Leviev and Vyacheslav Mirilashvili created the Vaizra Capital venture fund with offices in New York, Israel and St. Petersburg to invest in technology companies at any stage of development, investing in a number of other projects: Coub video hosting, Ostrovok.ru hotel booking service, Komitet Publishing House (includes the Zuckerberg Will Call IT industry publication, TJournal social media and the Spark startup community), Livetex online consultant for websites, Riders community for extreme sportsmen. At the end of 2014, there were about 30 projects in the portfolio of the general fund. In August 2014, Leviev announced a personal investment of € 500 thousand in joint with Boaz Behar startup - an API platform for BlockTrail bitcoin developers.

Leviev and Mirilashvili are fund investors Yuri Milner DST Global II and DST Global IV

As for the social network itself, today VKontakte is the largest Russian social network, whose monthly audience, according to TNS, is 31.5 million people. The company's revenue in 2012 amounted to 4.8 billion rubles.

PROPERTY TRANSFERS

As of February 1, 2008, 100% of Vkontakte was transferred to the offshore company Doraview Limited, registered in the British Virgin Islands.

The first external investor was the fund Digital Sky Technologies Y. Milner(son) who bought a quarter of the social network in 2007 and later transferred it to the balance of Mail.Ru Group.Gradually, Mail.ru Group began to buy shares in the VKontakte network. In redeeming the next 7.5% of the shares. So both Mirilashvili sold Mail.ru - 30%, Leviev - 4%, and Durov - 8% of the company's shares.

In 2011, Mail.ru Group increased its share in the social network VKontakte from 32.49% to 39.99%. The company exercised an option to buy back 7.44% from the founders of the network at a price of $111.7 million. By the end of the year, Mail.ru Group already owned 39.99% of the social network, and the remaining 60% were divided between Durov (12%), Leviev (8 %) and the Mirilashvili family (40%). The transaction was carried out through JPMorgan bank, where the shareholder structure is described.

In April 2013, Mirilashvili's share was bought out by the United Capital Partners fund, which is headed by Ilya Shcherbovich, a member of the boards of directors of such large companies as Rosneft, Transneft, Federal Grid Company. Forbes devoted a special material to how he circumvented legal restrictions and sold Gazprom shares to foreign companies. At the same time, it is shown that Shcherbovich is a long-term partner of the Russian government, while engaging in raiding and money laundering through offshore companies.

January 25, 2014 Durov announced that he had sold all his remaining shares (12%) to his friend Ivan Tavrin, director of Megafon.

In September 2014, VKontakte sold the remaining 48.01% stake in the social network Mail.ru Group for $1.47 billion.

Thus, Mail.ru Group became the owner of 100% of the shares of the VKontakte social network, since both Megafon and Mail.ru, in turn, belong to the oligarch. Usmanov's wife - born in a family of Samarkand Jews Irina Viner-Usmanova, which was given oversight of the Russian national gymnastics team, brought V. Putin With A. Kabaeva. After that, Usmanov actively engaged in buying up all the media resources of any importance. It got to the point that even Habrahabr was under his control for some time.

Today, VKontakte is Russia's largest social network, with a monthly audience of 31.5 million, according to TNS. The company's revenue in 2012 amounted to 4.8 billion rubles.

It should be noted that at the same time, oddly enough, but VKontakte - especially in comparison with Facebook - still gives relative freedom to its users - and does not block users for harsh criticism of the regime, the Jewish coup in the former Ukraine, the Kremlin's betrayal of Donbass, etc. .

Apparently they haven't arrived yet.

Your own Vkontakte group is an opportunity to realize your talents, find new friends of interest, and most importantly, earn income. Many companies and individuals providing a wide range of services (cosmetology, nail services, hairdressing, tailoring) use social network groups to promote themselves. It is necessary to figure out how to create such a community correctly, and learn how to manage it rationally.

Creating a VKontakte group

• It all starts with registering on the network and creating a personal profile, while a mobile phone number must be linked to the page, which increases the degree of account protection;
• Next, go to the "My groups" section, where select the "Create community" button.

You will see the task of selecting the type of group:

• Group - a community that can be both closed and open, created for active communication of friends;
• Public page - is an open official community that is suitable for promoting both individuals and companies;
• An event is a community created for the implementation of certain events - concerts, performances of musical groups, memorable events in clubs, etc.

After selecting the type of group, you must click on the "Create Community" button.

Going to the community description page, you will need to specify the topic, select its type “Open / Closed”, determine the possibility for group users to participate in discussions, post audio, video format materials on the group wall. After making the settings, you should save the data and your group is ready.

VKontakte group management

Group management means appointing and removing administrators, adding and deleting users, viewing statistical data. But first of all, you should start by uploading a group avatar that will attract the desired audience.

• First you need to select a personal one from the list in "My groups", go to the "Management" tab;

• Next, in the window that opens, select "Community Management", the line of which is located first under the group avatar.

• By selecting the "Participants" tab, you can define the role of one or more users from the list that appears (the moderator filters messages and users, the editor changes the text, photo, the administrator determines the rights of other users) or change it. In this case, the creator of the page will always have more rights than any of the users.

• You can move a user to the black list by copying his address. In "Community Management", by going to the "Black List" tab, add the copied id.

In the window that appears, select the blocking time, reason, comment. It also allows you to remove a user from the list or change the reason for getting into it.

In the last article, I had the pleasure of telling you. Today you will learn about useful services, programs and applications for VK group administrators created to help them.

What are the applications and what are they for?

Not everyone, however, knows what applications are, how they work and what they are for. Let's first understand the terminology.

For the sake of modernity, the application is also called an applet (from the English application), which, in fact, translates as “application”. Over time, application has become shorthand for app, and let is a shorthand for a small component in a large piece of software, i.e. such a small application program is obtained. And it is needed to perform certain user tasks or solve some problems.

This functionality allows you to improve interaction with subscribers, significantly saves time for administering groups, and at the same time serves as a platform for promoting services.
