This wikiHow teaches you how to find the address of a website on your computer, phone, or tablet. If you're looking for the website of a company, person, product, or organization, you can usually find the URL using a search engine like Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo. If you're already viewing the website of the URL you need, you can copy it from the address bar and paste it anywhere you wish, such as into an email, text message, or another browser tab.

Click a link to view the website. This redirects you to the website.
Find the URL of the website. The website's URL is in the address bar, which is usually at the top of your web browser window. This bar may be at the bottom of the window in Chrome on some Androids.

- If you're using a PC or Mac, click the URL to highlight it, and then press Control + C (PC) or Command + C (Mac) to copy it.
- On a phone or tablet, tap and hold the URL in the address bar, and then tap Copy when the menu appears.
Paste the URL. Now that the URL is copied to your clipboard, you can paste it anywhere you wish:
- If you're using a PC or Mac, right-click (or press Control as you click on a Mac) the place you'd like to paste the URL, and then click Paste on the menu.
- On a phone or tablet, tap and hold the place you want to paste the URL, and then tap Paste when it appears on the menu.
