Why can't I add a website link to my LinkedIn profile?
How do I add a website link to the top of my LinkedIn profile?
Why can't I edit a website link in my LinkedIn profile?
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
