Random Link Generator

Random Link Generator

The Random Link Generator creates random URLs for testing and mock data – for example https://pixelshop.example.com/blog/482?page=17&sort=3 or http://localhost:5173/api/v1/users. Choose the kind of domain, the protocol, how deep paths go and whether to add query strings and #fragments, then generate up to hundreds of links at once.

Domain modes

• Reserved / safe – example.com, example.org, example.net and the .test / .example top-level domains. These are reserved for documentation and testing, so they never point to someone's real site. Use this by default.
• Realistic made-up domains – word combinations like swiftlabs.io or greenstudio.dev for mockups that need to look real.
• localhost & IPs – localhost:3000, 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.x.x addresses for local development tests.

What developers use it for

Form and validator testing. Fill URL fields with many different shapes – deep paths, numeric IDs, several query parameters, fragments – and check your validation and error messages.

Link parsers and routers. Feed a list of URLs into your router, link-preview code or analytics parser and confirm every part (host, path, search, hash) is extracted correctly.

Seed data and mockups. Populate a database, spreadsheet or design mockup with plausible links without using real people's websites.

Documentation. Write examples with reserved domains so readers never accidentally visit a real site.

How to use

Pick a domain mode and protocol, set the maximum path depth (0 gives just the domain), switch query strings and fragments on or off, and press Generate. No repeats keeps every URL unique. Copy the list or download it as a text file.
