Embed / widget attribution pattern — tools offered with copy-paste embed snippets earn attribution backlinks when other sites display them; place "add to your site" at point of peak perceived value

Summary

Claim: Tools offered with a copy-paste embed snippet earn attribution backlinks when other sites display them. Best practice: place the "add this to your site" option at the point of peak perceived value (right under the result), not buried in a footer or About page.

Source: Practitioner literature; several sources sell embed platforms (flagged).

Confidence: Industry-consensus.

Why this matters for Candid: Operational design detail. The embed-snippet placement decision is one of the few high-leverage choices in a tool build — wrong placement converts a potential link-magnet into a regular page.
