    When do you need URL encoding?

    When you need to add a space, a non-ASCII character, or special symbols such as &, =, ? to a URL's query parameters, URL encoding is essential. Otherwise the link breaks and the server misinterprets the parameters. This tool comes in handy when building API requests, search links, and tracking parameters (UTM).

    All conversion happens in your browser; the data you enter is never sent to any server.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    URL encoding converts unsafe or special-meaning characters in a URL (space, &, ?, non-ASCII letters, etc.) into codes that start with '%'. For example, a space becomes '%20' and the '&' character becomes '%26'. This ensures links are transmitted between browsers and servers without corruption.

    encodeURIComponent encodes a part of a URL (such as a query parameter value) and also encodes characters like &, =, ?. encodeURI encodes a full URL and leaves these structural characters untouched. This tool uses encodeURIComponent, which is ideal for query parameters.

    Turkish characters are converted into multiple percent codes via UTF-8 encoding; for example, the character 'ç' becomes '%C3%A7'. This tool handles UTF-8 correctly, so you can encode and decode Turkish text without issues.
