How to use Extract URLs or Domain Names

Paste the surrounding text as well as the addresses; the output isolates the recognized matches.

URL and Domain Extractor

  1. Paste the source material into Insert text. It can contain surrounding prose as well as website addresses.
  2. Leave Look only for domains off to retain full matched addresses. Select it to return the hostname without the scheme, path, query, or port.
  3. Click Extract to process the current input.
  4. Read Result and Number of rows. The extracted entries follow their order in the source; repeated addresses can remain repeated.
  5. Click Copy under the output you want to keep. Use Clear where shown to clear the text fields; option selections stay as set.

For a source containing the bare address example.test/docs, normal mode returns that address. Look only for domains returns example.test.

Extraction does not check website availability

The tool recognizes address-like text and validates candidate syntax. It does not visit the extracted websites or establish that their pages exist.

A hostname is not always a registered base domain

Domain-only output retains subdomains. For example, shop.example.test stays shop.example.test; it is not reduced to example.test.

Return domain names only

Select Look only for domains, then click Extract. Review the hostname list in Result; subdomains remain and repeated matches are not deduplicated.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Select Look only for domains to return hostnames without paths, queries, ports, or schemes.
