URL Encoder – User Guide

The URL Encoder tool lets you quickly convert text into a URL-safe format by replacing unsafe characters with their encoded equivalents. This process, also known as percent encoding, ensures that URLs are correctly interpreted by web browsers and servers without breaking due to special characters.

1. What is URL Encoding?

URL encoding replaces characters that are not allowed in a URL (such as spaces, symbols, and non-ASCII text) with % followed by a two-digit hexadecimal code.

Example:

Hello World → Hello%20World

Here, the space character is replaced by %20.

2. Features of the Tool

• Instant Encoding: Paste your text and get URL-encoded output instantly.

• Decoding Support: Convert URL-encoded strings back to normal text.

• Multiple Input Options: Type, paste, or upload text files.

• Safe & Secure: All processing is done locally in your browser—no data is sent to servers.

• Copy to Clipboard: Quickly use encoded URLs in your code or projects.

3. How to Use the URL Encoder Tool

1. Select Mode: Choose “Encode” to convert normal text into URL-safe text, or “Decode” to reverse the process.

2. Input Your Text: Paste or type the content you want to encode.

3. Click Convert: Instantly see the encoded or decoded result.

4. Copy or Save Output: Use it in APIs, HTML links, or browser address bars.

4. Common Use Cases

• Encoding search queries or form inputs for URLs.

• Preparing data for APIs that require URL-safe strings.

• Encoding special characters like spaces, ampersands (&), and question marks (?) in links.

• Safely sharing links with Unicode or emoji characters.
