About The Domain Extractor

The Domain Extractor scans mixed text, pasted URL lists, logs, and notes for hostnames, then returns a deduplicated list with occurrence counts.

Extraction runs locally in your browser. Sanitize logs or copied text when they contain private paths, internal hostnames, access tokens, or customer data.

How to Extract Domains Online

1. Paste URLs, hostnames, or mixed text into the Text or URL list box.
2. Click Extract Domains to normalize tokens and count each hostname.
3. Review the sorted domain list and occurrence counts.
4. Use Copy Output to move the results into an audit, allowlist, or report.

Choosing Options Correctly

Input format:
- Paste full URLs when you want the hostname extracted from each link.
- Paste bare domains when you already have a cleaned list.

Counts:
- Use higher counts to spot repeated host references.
- Treat missed items as a sign that surrounding punctuation or malformed URLs need cleanup.

Common Use Cases

• Building allowlists or denylists from copied notes.
• Extracting hostnames from logs or incident reports.
• Counting repeated domains before a cleanup pass.
• Normalizing copied URL lists for QA or SEO checks.

Quick FAQ

Does it remove duplicates?
Use the unique option if available. Otherwise repeated domains may appear more than once.

Does it include URL paths?
No. The goal is to extract domains or hostnames, not full URLs with paths and query strings.

Is the text uploaded?
No. Domain extraction is designed to run in the browser.

What inputs work best?
Plain text, URLs, logs, CSV snippets, and pasted lists work well when domains are written in recognizable forms.
