I thought this feature would have been long gone on LinkedIn, but I guess it’s here to stay. Has anyone seem their numbers go down on LinkedIn since LinkedIn has made a photo linked to a URL super small? What other LinkedIn features are you using instead to keep engagements up? I’m considering some content to LinkedIn Newsletters.

I’ve also noticed my post clicks have decreased since this new linked photo update. I know it’s “best practice” to include links in the comment section anyways as opposed to the main post, but I found that’s not very intuitive for my specific audience even with prompts to do so in the main copy. Also links in comments don’t carry across if the post is reposted with your thoughts.
I find using vanity urls on graphics works well, but this isn’t a method I can adopt across all our posts.
I’m also curious to hear if anyone else has found a work around to the update.
