About the Bulk Hyperlink Generator

Bulk Hyperlink Generator does for a list what the single link generator does for one link. Paste a column of URLs, or pairs of URL and anchor text, and every row comes back as a finished link in the format you choose.

Pairs can be separated by a comma, a tab or a pipe, which means a two-column paste straight out of a spreadsheet works without reformatting. When a row has no anchor text, the tool falls back to one you choose: the full URL, the domain, or the last path segment turned into readable words, which is usually the most presentable option.

The rel and target attributes you pick are applied to every link, and an optional wrapper turns the whole set into an unordered list or a numbered list in one step. Rows that are not usable URLs are reported rather than silently dropped.

Frequently asked questions

How do I supply anchor text for each link?

Put it on the same line after a comma, a tab or a pipe. A line such as https://example.com/guide, Our complete guide produces a link whose text is the second part. Lines without a separator use the fallback you selected.

What does the automatic anchor text produce?

Depending on your choice, either the full URL, just the domain, or the last part of the path converted into words. A path ending in best-free-tools becomes Best free tools, which is usually close enough to edit rather than retype.

Can I apply nofollow to the whole list?

Yes. Any rel values you tick are written onto every link in the batch, which is the usual case for a list of outbound or affiliate links.

What happens to lines that are not URLs?

They are skipped and counted, and the message tells you how many were ignored, so a stray heading or a blank row does not quietly disappear from your output.

Is there a limit on list size?

No fixed limit. Lists of thousands of rows are handled in your browser without a server round trip.

Does it check whether the URLs work?

No. It only builds the markup. Checking that each address resolves would require requesting every one of them, which a page in your browser is not permitted to do across other domains.
