You may block if someone sends you inappropriate messages or perhaps you\u2019re trying to keep business contacts separate from your personal social media profiles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From a business-to-business or business-to-personal perspective, the reasons for blocking someone probably look a little bit different. It\u2019s becoming an increasingly large problem fighting \u201cbots\u201d and spam accounts on various social media platforms. Blocking these types of accounts from commenting on or sharing your content is a good professional move. They do have the potential to tarnish your reputation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, as a business, it\u2019s important to remain open and accessible on social media, so blocking others should be used as a last resort only in the most dire of cases where your reputation (or safety) is at stake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help you defend your brand, I\u2019ve collected a few tips on <strong>how to block someone on all social media platforms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/a><h2>\n            1.

Depending on whether you are using a computer or a mobile device, the steps are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3>\n            Steps to blocking someone on Facebook    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"ol-numbers wp-block-list\"><li>Log into your Facebook account<\/li><li>Go to the profile page of that person who you want to block<\/li><li>Click on the right-hand corner, pick \u201cBlock\u201d button<\/li><li>Confirm that you\u2019d like to block the person. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"p-post__t-emph\">\n<p><strong>What happens when someone blocks you on Facebook?<\/strong><br>As a test, I asked my colleague to block me on Facebook. Once I was blocked, I was unable to view her profile or locate her on the platform at all. This is a helpful step if you\u2019d like to confirm whether you know the process or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, if you\u2019ve made a mistake, or you\u2019re prepared to unblock someone, the steps vary slightly from a computer to a mobile device. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3>\n            How to unblock someone on Facebook using the web app    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"ol-numbers wp-block-list\"><li>Click \u201cSettings\u201d in the right-handed corner.<\/li><li>Click \u201cBlocking\u201d on the left.<\/li><li>Check the \u201cBlock users\u201d, click \u201cUnblock\u201d for the user in question.<\/li><li>Click \u201cConfirm.\u201d <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n<h3>\n            How to unblock someone on Facebook using the mobile app    <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"ol-numbers wp-block-list\"><li>Navigate to the menu (three vertical lines), and click \u201cSettings &amp; Privacy.\u201d<\/li><li>Go to \u201cSettings.\u201d<\/li><li>Go to \u201cBlocking,\u201d located in the \u201cPrivacy\u201d section.<\/li><li>Unblock the user in question.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n<h4>\n            Can you temporarily block someone on Facebook?    <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Absolutely!

On the confirmation step, there is also an option to \u201cTake a Break\u201d with someone, where you can limit what of your content they have access to.<\/p>\n\n\n<h4>\n            How can I see people I\u2019ve blocked on Facebook?    <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"ol-numbers wp-block-list\"><li>Log into your Facebook page<\/li><li>Click \u201cSettings\u201d in the right-handed corner<\/li><li>Click \u201cBlocking\u201d on the left<\/li><li>Check the \u201cBlock users\u201d.
