Domain Extractor

Pull the domains out of a list of URLs and count them.

Quick Tool Overview

The Domain Extractor pulls every domain out of a list of URLs or a block of text, counts how many URLs each accounted for, and reduces them to hostname or registrable root as you choose. It carries the common multi-part suffixes, so example.co.uk reduces correctly where counting dots would not.

About the Domain Extractor

Paste URLs, or any text with URLs in it, and every domain is extracted, counted and listed. You choose whether to keep the full hostname, drop the www, or reduce everything to the registrable root so blog.example.co.uk and shop.example.co.uk count as one.

The root domain option is the one that takes real work, because you cannot get it by counting dots. example.co.uk has three parts and is a root domain; blog.example.com has three parts and is not. The tool carries the common multi-part suffixes — co.uk, com.au, co.jp, com.br and the rest — so the reduction is right for the domains most lists actually contain. Where it matters most is backlink analysis: five hundred links from one site is a very different fact from five hundred links from five hundred sites, and only a root-domain count tells the two apart.

Key features of the Domain Extractor

Real root domain logic

co.uk, com.au, co.jp and the rest are handled, because you cannot find a root domain by counting dots.

Three levels

Full hostname, hostname without www, or registrable root — whichever the analysis needs.

Counts per domain

Five hundred links from one site reads very differently from five hundred sites, and this tells them apart.

Finds URLs inside prose

Paste an email or a page of HTML and the addresses are found without cleaning it first.

Sorted by frequency

The domains that account for most of the list come first.

How to use the Domain Extractor

  1. 1

    Paste your URLs or text

    A clean list, or a page of prose with links in it — URLs are found either way.

  2. 2

    Choose the level

    Full hostname, hostname without www, or the registrable root domain.

  3. 3

    Read the counts

    Each domain is listed with how many URLs it accounted for, most first.

  4. 4

    Copy the list

    The deduplicated domains, ready for a spreadsheet or an outreach list.

Frequently asked questions

The registrable part — the bit you buy. example.com is a root domain; blog.example.com is a subdomain of it. It gets awkward with multi-part suffixes: example.co.uk is a root domain even though it has three parts, and you cannot work that out by counting dots.
