How to turn plain text into links
Pasting a URL into a rich-text editor usually works, but plain HTML, email templates, CMS fields and Markdown files will not link anything automatically. This tool scans your text, wraps each address in a proper anchor tag and gives you code you can paste straight in.
- Paste your text into the left box.
- Choose what to link - web addresses, bare domains, emails, phone numbers.
- Set link attributes. Open in a new tab, add
nofollow,sponsoredorugc. - Copy the result as HTML or Markdown.
Frequently asked questions
How do I make URLs clickable in text?
Paste your text on the left. Every URL, email address and (optionally) phone number is turned into a link instantly. Copy the HTML for your website or the Markdown for docs and READMEs.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. The conversion runs in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded or stored on a server.
What are nofollow, sponsored and ugc?
They are rel attributes that tell search engines how to treat a link. Use nofollow for links you don't vouch for, sponsored for paid or affiliate links and ugc for user-generated content.
Why does target="_blank" add noopener?
Links that open a new tab can give the new page access to your window unless you add rel="noopener". The tool adds it automatically whenever you choose to open links in a new tab.
