URLMode – fast URL, link & web protocol utilities
URL & link tools
22 free utilities for inspecting and managing URLs: trace 301/302 redirect chains, check HTTP status codes and headers, verify canonical and Open Graph tags, and clean, tag or shorten links in bulk. Check redirects, status codes and headers, preview social cards, clean and tag URLs — everything you need to manage links in one place.
How it works
Short links and QR codes in seconds
Paste a long URL to get an HTTPS fvj.io short link that redirects with a 302 so every click is counted. Choose QR code to encode that short link in a printable PNG or SVG, so scans are tracked and the destination stays editable.
Paste your long URL
Drop any link into the box above — product pages, UTM-tagged campaigns, documents or videos.

With a free account, see clicks by day, country, device and referrer — and change the destination any time.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is the URLMode URL shortener free?
Yes. Anyone can create 2 short links and 2 QR codes without an account. A free account removes the limit and adds click statistics, custom back-halves and editable destinations.
What domain do my short links use?
Short links are served on fvj.io — a short, memorable .io domain — for example https://fvj.io/abc123. Every link uses HTTPS.
Are URLMode QR codes dynamic?
Yes. Each QR code points to a short link, so you can count scans and (with a free account) change where it goes later without reprinting the code.
Do short links expire?
No. Links stay active unless they break our acceptable-use policy (spam, phishing, malware or adult content), in which case they are disabled.
What other tools does URLMode offer?
URLMode bundles 90 free utilities: a redirect checker (301 vs 302), HTTP status and header checkers, Open Graph and canonical URL checkers, UTM builders, URL cleaners, plus SEO, domain, YouTube and developer tools.
