How it works

Three layers of protection, checked in one scan.

01

Paste your URL

Enter any link — a full URL, shortened link, or bare domain. No protocol needed. We normalize and validate it automatically.

02

Multi-engine scan

We query VirusTotal (70+ AV engines simultaneously), Google Safe Browsing, and the URLhaus malware feed. Domain age is checked as an additional trust signal.

03

Instant verdict

You get a clear SAFE, WARNING, or THREAT result with the full engine breakdown — clean, suspicious, and malicious counts — plus a recommended action.

Domain Age Check

Domains under 30 days old are a major phishing signal — created to evade blocklists. We surface this even before engines catch up.

Phishing signal
What you get

Three verdicts, always explained

SAFE

No engines flagged this URL and the domain has an established history. Safe to visit — stay alert to unexpected login prompts once on the site.

WARNING

The URL is not flagged, but the domain was registered very recently — a common phishing tactic before blocklists catch up. Verify the sender before proceeding.

THREAT

One or more engines confirmed this URL as malicious or phishing. Do not visit it. If you already clicked — run a full malware scan on your device now.

For website owners

Add a security tool your readers
will thank you for.

One script tag. Zero backend. Your visitors check suspicious links without leaving your page — and you earn a quality backlink from a security-trusted domain.

Do-follow backlink from uGetFix.com

Every site that embeds the scanner is listed in our Partners directory with a quality do-follow link. Permanent. No strings attached.

Instant trust signal for your readers

70% of people hesitate on links they are unsure about. Give them the tool to check — right on your page. That confidence keeps them engaged and coming back.

Longer sessions, lower bounce

Readers who interact with embedded tools stay 2.4x longer on page. A scanner adds a reason to pause and engage rather than leave to verify a link elsewhere.

Zero infrastructure cost

No server, no API key, no rate limits to manage. We handle the backend, the databases, and the uptime. You just add one script tag.

Security-topic SEO halo

Pages hosting legitimate security tools earn higher trust signals. Your association with a scanner used by 2.4M monthly readers carries real authority weight.

FAQ

Common questions

Is this URL scanner free?

Yes, completely free. No account or registration required. Just paste any URL or domain and click "Check now" — results appear in seconds.

How does the URL scanner work?

We cross-reference your URL against VirusTotal (70+ antivirus engines), Google Safe Browsing, and the URLhaus malware feed. Results are delivered in real time, and we check domain age as an additional trust signal for newly registered sites.

What does the THREAT verdict mean?

At least one security engine flagged the URL as malicious, phishing, or suspicious — or the URL appears in the URLhaus malware database. Do not visit the site. If you already clicked the link, run a malware scan on your device immediately.

What does the WARNING verdict mean?

The URL itself was not flagged, but the domain was registered very recently (under 30 days). New domains are frequently used in phishing and scam campaigns before security databases catch up. Proceed with caution.

How up to date are the threat databases?

VirusTotal aggregates results from 70+ security vendors updated continuously. Google Safe Browsing updates its lists multiple times per day. URLhaus is a community-driven feed updated in real time. Scan results are cached for 24 hours to stay within API limits.

Can I check any type of URL?

Yes — websites, shortened links, file download URLs, and raw domains. We automatically add https:// if no protocol is specified. Private/internal IPs (192.168.x.x, localhost) are blocked for security.

What if the URL comes back SAFE but I still feel suspicious?

Security databases can lag behind brand-new threats. Look for signs of social engineering: urgency in the message, unexpected login requests, or a domain that looks like a well-known brand but differs by one letter. When in doubt, do not click.

Can I embed this scanner on my own website?

Yes — free, no API key, one script tag. Scroll down to the "Add to your site" section or visit our Embed tools page for the snippet and documentation.
