What does this website do?

URLimg allows you to add thumbnails to URLs you want to post on Reddit. We do this by acting as forwarding service which allows you to set an individual <og:image> tag. By doing this you can decide what thumbnail will be shown next to your link.

Why should I use it?

For some websites, Reddit doesn't automatically show the right thumbnail. To fix such an issue, you either have to change the source code of the site, you link to, or use our service. Please be aware that we are using a meta refresh to redirect users to your site. This could be a potential issue if you care about SEO.

Couldn't this service be abused?

It's important to us that our site is not used to mislead users. We, therefore, implemented the security feature that redirection URLs always start with their target's domain name. This allows users to immediately see where you are linking to.
