Why Encode URLs?
URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set. If a URL contains characters outside the ASCII set (like spaces, emojis, or foreign letters), the URL has to be converted into a valid ASCII format. URL encoding replaces unsafe ASCII characters with a "%" followed by two hexadecimal digits.
