In the fourth episode of The Marketing Update Podcasts's mini-episode titled "Did you miss it?" which focuses on recent marketing updates you might have missed. David and Emma rugby tackle the following topics in 15 minutes or less.

This week they discuss:

• LinkedIn is pushing vertical videos again but this time for advertising. What does this mean for marketers?
• Instagram have allowed Google to crawl their platform which means IG content can show up in Google searches now. But what are the restrictions and how to opt out?
• A new study shows how different ways of optimising your content can increase your chance of appearing in LLMs. Which are they, and how do you implement them? And lastly,
• WhatsApp ads are now live in the 'Updates' tab of your app. What formats have they launched and what does it mean for digital advertising?
