Plinkme was developed to provide bloggers, article writers and content republishers with a means to easily and very quickly add a photo to their content to make it more visually appealing - simply by copying and pasting some JavaScript into their page. Plinkme is also a service for photographers to showcase their work, get them exposure and generate links to their site.

We believe this service will give serious amateurs and professional photographers a means to get their pictures into the public eye; Plinkme automatically provides a link back to the photographer’s own home page as well as their plinkme gallery whenever and wherever the photo is published.

In return every time a photo is used, a link to the page publishing the photo is shown in the photographer’s gallery. Plinkme visitors can view other content used with a particular photo or a particular photographer’s photos.
