URL Parser

Parse and analyze URLs

About URL Parser

URL Parser breaks a URL into its components — protocol, hostname, port, path, search string, hash, and query parameters — using the browser's native URL API, entirely in your browser. It parses the full hostname as a single field; it doesn't separately break out the subdomain or top-level domain the way a dedicated domain-parsing tool would.

How to use URL Parser

  1. 1Paste a full URL, including its protocol (e.g. https://), into the input field.
  2. 2Click 'Parse URL'.
  3. 3Review the breakdown: protocol, hostname, port, path, search, and hash.
  4. 4If the URL has query parameters, review them individually in the Query Params section.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need to parse a URL?

It extracts the individual components of a URL, useful for debugging, understanding link structure, or inspecting query parameters.

Is it free to use?

Yes, completely free with no registration required.

Does it split the hostname into subdomain and top-level domain?

No — the full hostname is shown as one field; it's not further broken down into subdomain, domain, and TLD.

Is my URL sent to a server?

No, parsing uses the browser's native URL API and happens entirely locally.

Tips & Tricks

  • Always include the protocol (https:// or http://) — without one, the URL is treated as invalid.
  • Use the Query Params section to quickly check individual parameter values without manually splitting the query string.
  • This is a genuine URL parser (the browser's built-in URL class), so it correctly rejects malformed URLs rather than guessing.
  • For domain-only analysis (subdomain vs. root domain), a dedicated domain-parsing tool will give a more detailed breakdown.
