Fresh users will have to log in using their standard credentials and they won’t have to follow any specific topics or influencers. Instead, Pulse will retrieve a range of signals (such as industry, interests, etc.) and will offer users the most relevant content based on their preferences.

Moreover, you don’t have to be a LinkedIn member to enjoy the articles found on Pulse. Users can explore it without having to sign up. Apart from that, users will have the option to set up alerts, in order to receive notifications each time somebody mentions them on an article or in comments.
