ALinkedIn newsletter is a set of regularly published articles, typically on one specific topic, that a member or a LinkedIn Page writes and other members can subscribe to123. LinkedIn's undated Help page on newsletters describes them as a way for an author to build and grow a regularly engaged audience3.
Who can create a newsletter and how
All LinkedIn members can create a newsletter, while Pages must meet criteria first12. To do so, a member clicks Write article at the top of the homepage, opens the Manage dropdown at the upper right and selects Create newsletter2. Super admins and Content admins of a Page also see a Publish as option, where they pick the account to publish from2. A Page must meet three criteria to be evaluated for access: more than 150 followers and/or connections, recent original content of any type, and a history of following LinkedIn's Professional Community Policies1.
How subscribing and notifications work
Subscribing to a LinkedIn newsletter does more than sign a member up for alerts3. Subscribers receive push, in-app and email notifications when the author publishes a new article2. Any member can subscribe, and subscribing also makes that member a follower of the newsletter's author3. When a member starts following another member or a Page that has a newsletter, LinkedIn automatically sends a notification inviting them to subscribe23. Newsletters a member subscribes to are visible to others and on that member's profile until they unsubscribe3.
Where members find newsletters
LinkedIn presents subscribing to newsletters as a way to receive content relevant to a member's career4. LinkedIn's Help Center lists subscribing to newsletters for recurring insights as one way to add more perspectives to the Feed, and it points members to the My Network page to discover recommended voices, companies and topics5. LinkedIn Engineering said in October 2020 that the My Network tab shows recommendations for people, hashtags, companies, groups, newsletters and events6. LinkedIn also offers its own Top Picks newsletter, curated by its News team, to members for inspiration3. Each newsletter also has its own feed, which LinkedIn Ireland's 2025 DSA report says includes an overview, the author's profile information and a list of articles, where members can see past editions, subscribe or share7.
