LinkedIn Updates Post Embeds with Cleaner Design and Video Previews for Third-Party Sites
LinkedIn has rolled out an updated post embed feature that offers a cleaner design, compact previews, and real-time engagement metrics. Users can now choose to embed the full post (Embed full post), a shortened version (Embed with less text), or just the video (Embed video only).
At the moment, there is not ability to embed multi-photo posts or reposts with commentary.
Why It Matters: With more content originating from LinkedIn, especially as the platform pushes for video, this updated embed experience opens up new opportunities for users to repurpose content across third-party sites, like personal or company websites.
It's particularly useful for B2B creators who want to showcase sponsored posts in their portfolios and for journalists or publishers embedding executive videos, as more leaders turn to LinkedIn to make company announcements.
This increased embedding of LinkedIn content also benefits the platform by driving more traffic back to its site.
