The URL Encoder/Decoder is a handy tool for website owners, bloggers and digital marketers to encode or decode URLs. Encoding URLs is important for privacy reasons, to hide sensitive parameters in URLs, or to shorten long URLs. With our free online tool, you can easily encode or decode URLs with just a few clicks.
Many websites use URLs that contain private user information like email addresses, phone numbers etc. Encoding such URLs helps protect user privacy by hiding the actual parameter values. URL encoding is also useful to shorten long URLs and make them more shareable on social media and messaging platforms which have character limits.
Sometimes encoded URLs can cause issues like broken links if the parameters are not properly decoded on the destination page. The URL Decoder helps troubleshoot such problems by decoding the URL back to its original form. Web developers also use the decoder to debug encoded URLs and check the actual parameter values.
