Google link cleaner
Keep the result. Remove the extra Google link parts.
Paste a copied search result or Google URL to keep the useful destination and remove supported redirect or tracking information.
Three kinds of Google link
Copied Google redirect
google.com/url?q=...When the destination is included in a supported Google redirect link, the cleaner keeps the direct destination.
Google search URL
google.com/search?q=...The search terms and useful display options stay. Known click and session labels are removed.
Normal result link
example.com/articleA direct result may already be clean. The tool will say when there is nothing known to remove.
Common questions
Why can Google links be so long?
Some copied links include redirect wrappers, source labels, click information, or search settings around the destination.
What does cleaning one change?
It keeps the destination or search and removes supported redirect and tracking parts when they are present.
Should I clean links before citing them?
A direct source link is usually easier for someone else to read, verify, archive, and reuse.
