Link Previews That Boost Engagement on Agency-Built Sites
How a web agency that hand-codes sites on Astro and Cloudflare adds link previews to its own site and to the client sites it designs, with Microlink serving the preview behind every link.
A small web agency building fast, accessible, SEO-ready websites on Astro and Cloudflare.
TechTailors is a Chattanooga-based web agency that hand-codes websites for businesses that take their website seriously, from launch-ready landing pages to enterprise-grade platforms. Every build runs on Astro and Cloudflare, ships on accounts in the client's name, and comes with transparent monthly pricing, unlimited edits, and lifetime maintenance.
The team is intentionally small: clients know everyone by name, and founder Mac Goldman brings a decade across marketing analysis, data, and software engineering to every project. Alongside design and development, TechTailors offers SEO, analytics, blogging, brand design, CRO testing, and custom integrations, so the sites it ships keep working long after launch.
Microlink's link preview service is extremely helpful for boosting client engagement on our site and other client sites we design for. It's a subtle, but very engaging and great feature.
One link preview service behind the agency site and its client builds
When a TechTailors site links out, Microlink turns the plain URL into a preview with the destination's title, description, and image. The agency runs it on gettechtailored.com and on the client sites it designs, so a link reads as a card a visitor wants to open rather than a bare line of text.
The same Microlink service covers the agency's own site and every client site it designs, so a preview looks and behaves the same from one build to the next. In Mac Goldman's words, it is a subtle feature, but a very engaging one.
A link preview API an agency can reuse on every build
An agency that ships many sites needs features that work the same on each one without adding maintenance. TechTailors reached for Microlink for three reasons.
