The professional platform is rolling out interest targeting in Campaign Manager – an option that will allow advertisers to target users with ads that match their professional interests.

LinkedIn explains interest targeting as follows:

“We’re excited to announce interest targeting in Campaign Manager. Interest targeting lets you reach members with relevant ads that match their professional interests — based on the content they share and engage with on LinkedIn.”

Interest targeting will be available to all advertisers over the next week.
