Matched Output (Unmatched are Skipped)
Use this free domain row finder to locate the exact row numbers of any domain inside a huge list of URLs.
Quick answer
A domain row finder scans a list of URLs and tells you on which rows a specific domain appears. Paste your URLs (one per line), enter one or more target domains and click Find Exact Matches. The tool matches the exact root domain only – www. is ignored, but subdomains, other extensions and URLs that merely mention the domain in their path are skipped.
Table of Contents
SEO teams, link builders and data analysts often work with spreadsheets of thousands of URLs: backlink exports, crawl reports, outreach lists or guest-post deliveries. When a client asks “where is example.com in this list?”, scrolling or using Ctrl+F quickly fails – a simple text search also catches subdomains and URLs that just mention the domain somewhere in the path.
Our free domain row finder solves this. It reads up to 100,000 URLs, extracts the real host name of each one, and returns the exact row numbers for every domain you are looking for. Everything runs in your browser, so private client data is never uploaded.
How the Domain Row Finder Matches URLs
The engine compares the root host of every URL with your target domain. Here is what happens with a target of example.com:
| URL in your list | Matched? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| https://www.example.com/blog/post-1 | Yes | www. is removed before comparing |
| http://example.com/contact | Yes | Same root domain, protocol does not matter |
| https://shop.example.com/item | No | Subdomain is treated as a different host |
| https://example.org/about | No | Different extension (.org) |
| https://news.site.com/example.com-review | No | Domain only appears in the path |
This strict matching is exactly what you need when checking backlink reports or delivery lists, because a partial text match would give you false positives.
Domain Row Finder Example
Imagine a 6-row list where rows 1 and 5 are www.example.com/blog/post-1 and example.com/contact, while the other rows hold a subdomain, a .org site and an unrelated blog. Running the domain row finder with the target example.com returns: Total URLs Scanned: 6, Total Valid Matches Found: 2, Found in Rows: 1, 5. You can now jump straight to those rows in Excel or Google Sheets.
On a real backlink export with 50,000 rows, the same check takes a second in the domain row finder – compared with minutes of filtering and second-guessing partial matches by hand.
How to Use the Domain Row Finder
Find every row for your target domains in three quick steps.
Step 1: Paste Your URL List
Copy the URL column from your spreadsheet, crawl export or backlink report and paste it into Input 1: Bulk URLs List – one URL per line. The order you paste is the row order used in the results, so row 1 is the first line.
Step 2: Enter the Target Domain(s)
Type the domain you want to find in Input 2: Target Domain(s), e.g. example.com. You can add several domains, one per line, to check them all in a single run. Then click Find Exact Matches.
Step 3: Read and Copy the Matched Rows
The output shows how many URLs were scanned, how many valid matches were found and, for each domain, the exact row numbers – for example Found in Rows: 1, 5. Domains with no match are skipped. Click Copy Output Results to paste the report anywhere, or Clear All to start again.
Practical Uses for a Domain Row Finder
- Backlink audits: check whether a referring domain from Ahrefs or Semrush appears in your disavow or outreach sheet.
- Guest post deliveries: confirm which rows in a client report belong to a specific publisher domain.
- Duplicate outreach prevention: make sure a domain is not contacted twice from a large prospect list.
- Crawl reports: locate internal versus external URLs for a domain in Screaming Frog exports.
- Data cleaning: find the rows to delete or highlight before importing data into another tool.
Tips for Accurate Results
- Paste one URL per line with no empty rows in between, so row numbers match your spreadsheet.
- If your sheet has a header row, remember that row 1 in the tool is the first URL, not the header.
- Enter bare domains like
example.com– no protocol or trailing slash needed. - To include a subdomain such as
blog.example.com, add it as its own target domain.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a domain row finder do?
It scans a list of URLs and returns the row numbers where a specific root domain appears, so you can find it in your spreadsheet instantly.
Does it match subdomains?
No. shop.example.com is treated as a different host from example.com. Add the subdomain as its own target if you need it.
Is www treated as the same domain?
Yes. www. is ignored, so www.example.com and example.com both match a target of example.com.
How many URLs can I paste?
The tool is built for lists of up to about 100,000 URLs in one go.
Can I search for several domains at once?
Yes. Enter one target domain per line and the output lists the matching rows for each domain separately.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. The domain row finder runs entirely in your browser, so your URL lists stay on your device.
