URL Link Previews for Gmail™ by cloudHQ Extension

Share visually appealing previews, or the full contents of a URL link directly in your email.

Here is how it works:
- paste URL in your Gmail™ compose window
- select \"Preview\", \"Content\", or \"Preview\"
- we will automatically embed preview of the URL link into your email

This includes private website URLs like: unpublished blog posts, pre-market listings for real estate, private legal contracts, and anything else that has a weblink!

Sending attractive URL link previews, or a URL's full webpage content directly in your email, will help you get your message across in a visual way that people will appreciate.

This is great for:
-Realtors: Send your VIP clients a sneak preview for what's about to hit the market
-Writers: Try sharing your unpublished blog posts with a graphic artist to make images or movies
-Job Seekers: Try applying for a job by email with your LinkedIn profile and include its full content!
-Business Owners: Did you get a contract that only you can see, but you want an outside opinion? Share it!
-Salespeople: Sending emails with links to your products are boring! Send it with a visual preview!
