URL Encoder / Decoder

Encode or decode URLs instantly for SEO, tracking parameters, and development use.

About this tool

The URL Encoder / Decoder tool converts URLs and text into a safe encoded format for the web (and decodes it back into readable form). It’s commonly used for UTM parameters, redirects, APIs, web development, and SEO workflows where special characters can break a URL.

Paste your URL or string, encode/decode instantly, and copy the result. If you’re building redirect rules, you may also need the .htaccess Redirect Generator. For duplicate URL variations (UTMs, filters, tracking), generate a clean canonical tag with the Canonical URL Generator.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Paste your URL or text into the input box.
  2. Click Encode to encode the URL.
  3. Click Decode to decode encoded text.
  4. Copy the result for use.
