II. CPM Deals
Beehiiv (Fund IV) has introduced two new features, CPM Deals and Backlinks, to enhance monetization and SEO for publishers. CPM Deals offer guaranteed payouts based on impressions from top brands, while Backlinks provide internal linking capabilities to improve site visibility and SEO.
