How to check whether a string is a valid HTTP URL?

    public static bool CheckURLValid(this string source)
    {
        Uri uriResult;
        return Uri.TryCreate(source, UriKind.Absolute, out uriResult) && uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttp;
    }

Usage:

string url = "htts://adasd.xc.";
if(url.CheckUrlValid())
{
  //valid process
}

UPDATE: (single line of code) Thanks @GoClimbColorado

public static bool CheckURLValid(this string source) => Uri.TryCreate(source, UriKind.Absolute, out Uri uriResult) && uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttps;

Usage:

string url = "htts://adasd.xc.";
if(url.CheckUrlValid())
{
  //valid process
}

This method works fine both in http and https. Just one line :)

if (Uri.IsWellFormedUriString("https://www.google.com", UriKind.Absolute))

Try this to validate HTTP URLs (uriName is the URI you want to test):

Uri uriResult;
bool result = Uri.TryCreate(uriName, UriKind.Absolute, out uriResult) 
    && uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttp;

Or, if you want to accept both HTTP and HTTPS URLs as valid (per J0e3gan's comment):

Uri uriResult;
bool result = Uri.TryCreate(uriName, UriKind.Absolute, out uriResult) 
    && (uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttp || uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttps);
