Did LinkedIn remove the website link feature?
Word on the street is that LinkedIn is REMOVING the Website Link in Your Top Header Card -- here's what you need to know!
LinkedIn is retiring the custom website link feature from our profiles, and I explain its implications. I share steps to verify if we still have access to this feature and provide advice on maintaining or updating the link.
I emphasize the importance of acting quickly as LinkedIn rolls out changes in waves and possibly removes features without notice.
I guide viewers on how to utilize this feature effectively while it's still available and encourage signing up for my VIP email list for more LinkedIn tips. https://www.mellermarketing.com/subscribe
