Right way to include an URL in a plain text sentence?

I like to be careful about correct spacing and syntax while writing plain text. In an English sentence, there is no space before the final dot. But if my sentence is: "Hey checkout this website http://example.com" I can't add the dot since it will change the URL. What is the correct way to write this? Is there any standard on the subject?
