Help with formatting websites to one format instead of 5-6 formats

I have a column with a bunch of website links that are all formatted differently so extract and split column aren't working as it just removes all other websites that don't follow that format.

I have websites starting with:
https://www. or  http:// or  www.  and some with no beginning to the link. Then some of the web links end with a / after the .com

I'm wanting all websites to be formatted as domains so it would just be: websitename.com

I'm not sure how to do this with a conditional column, custom column, calculated column or what. If I use split or extract it just messes everything up and makes things even more different. Any ideas? Please see reference picture to see what I'm working with.

I found my own solution by splitting the column by deliminators multiple times to get the part of the weblink I needed then merged the columns with the resulting format I was looking for. If you know of an easier way let me know but this worked.
