What is the Bulk URL Opener Tool?#
The Bulk URL Opener Tool turns a pasted list of links into a tidy set of URLs and opens them one by one in new tabs. It removes duplicate URLs, strips tracking tags such as utm_* and fbclid, and drops # fragments, so you open each page only once and without the noise added by sharing or advertising links.
Entries that cannot be opened are set aside with a reason. A delay between tabs spreads out the opening so the browser is not overloaded. Everything runs in your browser.
How to Use#
- Paste a list of URLs. Separate them with line breaks, commas, or spaces.
- Check the cleaned-up preview. Duplicates are removed, and tracking tags and
#fragments are stripped by default. - Pick an interval, then press Open all.
- If pop-ups are blocked, allow them for this site and press Open all again.
What It Cleans#
- Duplicate URLs: URLs that end up identical after cleaning are opened only once, keeping the first occurrence in order.
- Tracking tags: parameters such as
utm_source,fbclid,gclid, and_gaare removed. Other query parameters, like product IDs or search terms, are kept. #fragments: page anchors such as#sectionare removed so you land on the same clean page.
Cleaning is optional. Unchecking an option keeps duplicates, tracking tags, or fragments.
Opening Options#
- Interval: choose no delay, 0.3s, 0.5s, or 1.0s. A short delay spreads out the opening, so the browser does not have to load many tabs at once. 0.3s is recommended.
- Confirm before many tabs: opening more than 10 tabs asks for confirmation first.
- Limit: up to 30 URLs can be opened at once. Beyond that, remove some rows, open rows individually below, or copy the list.
Example#
Input
https://example.com/news?utm_source=newsletter&id=42#top
https://example.com/news?utm_source=newsletter&id=42
https://example.com/about
Output
https://example.com/news?id=42
https://example.com/about
The first two lines lead to the same page, so the second is removed as a duplicate. The utm_source tag and #top fragment are gone, while id=42 stays.
Common Use Cases#
- Check a batch of links from a newsletter or search results without opening each page twice.
- Share a clean list of links by removing the tracking tags added by email and ad platforms.
- Gather a set of reference links for notes, stripped of anchors and duplicates.
Frequently Asked Questions#
No. All processing happens in your browser, and your URLs are not uploaded anywhere.
Opening many tabs at once puts a heavy load on the browser. A short interval spreads out the opening, so each tab has time to load.
The tool counts how many were blocked and tells you. Allow pop-ups for this site in your browser, then press Open all again to open the rest.
No. Only known tracking tags are removed. Useful parameters such as product IDs or search terms are kept.
They are listed separately with a reason, such as an invalid format or a scheme other than http and https. An entry can be opened once its URL is corrected in the input list.
Two entries are considered duplicates when they look identical after cleaning. A URL that only differs by a tracking tag or fragment counts as a duplicate of the same page.
Notes#
- Tabs are opened according to your browser's pop-up behavior. If you block pop-ups, some tabs will not open.
- Up to 200 rows are processed.
- Schemes other than http and https (such as
javascript:ordata:) are never opened.
