## Break URLs into parts

Inspect scheme, host, path, query parameters, and fragments before adding links to static pages.

## Debug tracking links

See query parameters clearly so campaign URLs and redirects are easier to review.

## Useful for agents

Agents can use parsed URLs to avoid mixing domains, paths, and query strings during edits.

## How to use URL Parser

Split a URL into readable components before using it in redirects, canonicals, buttons, or campaigns.

1. **Paste a URL** — Use the full URL you want to inspect, including query string if relevant.
2. **Parse components** — StaticX returns each part in a readable table.
3. **Fix links** — Use the parsed result to correct navigation, canonical URLs, redirects, or campaign links.

## A small URL mistake can break routing or attribution.

Static sites often depend on clean links: canonical tags, form redirects, CTA buttons, and campaign URLs. Parsing the URL makes hidden issues visible.

Use this before publishing pages that include external links, UTM parameters, or route-sensitive CTA destinations.

## URL parts that affect static sites

- **Canonical checks** — Confirm the scheme, host, and path before setting canonical URLs.
- **Query review** — Inspect UTM and referral parameters without reading one long string.
- **Fragment awareness** — Anchor links after # are client-side fragments, not server routes.

## FAQ

### Can this check if a URL is live?

No. It parses URL structure. Use a separate request or browser check to confirm availability.

### Does the parser follow redirects?

No. It reads the submitted URL and returns its components.

### Why are query parameters important?

They often control tracking, filters, or campaign attribution, so mistakes can affect analytics.
