How to follow someone on Facebook without being friends

Facebook provides a function called "Follow". We will see the "Follow" button with an "Add as Friend" option on that person's profile if the person has turned on this feature. When we follow someone, we will be able to see his/her post in our news feed. After following someone, we can unfollow them also. These are the following steps to follow someone on Facebook:

Desktop: To follow someone

1) Login into Facebook Account

Firstly, open the Facebook official website by pasting the https://www.facebook.com/ in the address bar of our preferred web browser. If we are already logged into Facebook, we will directly reach the News Feed page. But if we are not login, then we have to enter the username, phone number, and email address, followed by the password in the given tab.

2) Find the Friend

Now, we will find the name of the friend by using the search bar. We will type the name of the friend in the search field and press enter. After pressing on the Enter button on the keyboard, a list of the people of the same name will be visible to the screen.

3) Open the profile

Now, we will click on the name of that person who we want to follow. In response to this click, the profile of that person will be open.

4) Click on the Follow

We will click on the Follow button located at the upper-right corner of the profile. In response to this click, our name will be added to that person's follower list, and we will be able to see all their posts in our news feed.
