Generate more Newsletter subscribers

Newsletters have quickly become a powerful content tool for brands. Using LinkedIn Newsletters, organisations can publish recurring articles and instantly build a subscriber community via a one-time notification to their Page followers and ongoing notifications to their Newsletter subscribers. 

The newest updates will allow users to easily subscribe to the brand’s newsletters on search engines. Making use of the SEO best practices in the article’s SEO titles, descriptions and tags will gain visibility. As the page continues to grow, LinkedIn will automatically send notifications to new followers to subscribe to the newsletter. 

Get discovered by showcasing your products

Brands can now get more value via the product pages on LinkedIn. Buyers can directly search for brand products, based on specific categories using the in-platform search. They can also use product highlights to showcase a specific product and can re-share content from product community to the LinkedIn page.
