Now you must fill out the page with the correct information for your new user. Below is an explanation for each part of the form.

Username - Username is the name of the user that readers will see (if reading something by them.) I recommend just using the person's first name.

E-mail - This is the email that wordpress will send notifications to the user at, as well as where it will send the user's login info.

First Name - The user's first name. (Not required)

Last Name - The user's last name. (Not required)

Website - The user's website if applicable. (Not required)

Role - The role defines what permissions the user will have. I will explain each on the next page.

When u want somebody on fiverr to do onpage seo for your website - what role should we assign to him - subscriber, editor, author or administrator?

On-site SEO implies that they will be making content changes to your pages and posts. I would give them editor auth.

I would give them editor. However, make sure you back up your site and make sure they're trustworthy because that gives them the power to edit your posts.
