What is URL Encoder/Decoder?
URL Encoder/Decoder is an essential utility for web developers and SEO specialists. It handles "Percent-encoding," which is a mechanism for encoding information in a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI).
URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set. Since URLs often contain characters outside the ASCII set, they must be converted into a valid format. This tool translates unsafe characters into a % followed by two hexadecimal digits, ensuring your links work perfectly across all browsers and servers.
