Link Extractor
Extract all URLs and links from any block of text.
The Link Extractor finds and lists all URLs from any block of text. It recognizes http, https, and www links, and outputs them one per line. Useful for researchers, content auditors, and anyone who needs to pull all links from a document or web page.
What This Tool Does
Finding all URLs in a large document manually is slow and unreliable. This tool scans your text and extracts every URL it finds - http links, https links, and www addresses. It outputs them as a clean list, one per line, ready to paste into a spreadsheet, browser, or link checker. It handles URLs with query strings, fragments, paths, and encoded characters correctly. Ideal for content audits, competitor analysis, research, and documentation.
Why Use This Tool
URLs are scattered throughout documents, emails, and web pages, and extracting them manually means clicking through or carefully selecting each one. For content audits, competitive analysis, or research documentation, you might need dozens or hundreds of URLs from a single source. This tool finds every URL instantly, listing them cleanly for further use. It is particularly valuable for SEO professionals checking internal and external links, and researchers collecting reference URLs from papers and articles.
