Slug Generator

Create URL-friendly slugs from text for SEO

What is the Slug Generator?

The slug generator works like this: it converts titles into URL-safe slugs: lowercase, accents folded to ASCII, spaces to hyphens, punctuation stripped. Everything happens on your device - the input never leaves your tab unless the tool clearly states it performs a server-side lookup.

How to use the Slug Generator

  1. Paste your text into the editor.
  2. Pick the transformation or analysis you need.
  3. Review the highlighted result before using it.
  4. Copy the finished text back to your document.

Frequently asked questions

Hyphens or underscores in slugs?

Hyphens - Google treats them as word separators while underscores historically joined words.

How are accented letters handled?

They fold to their ASCII base (e becomes e, n becomes n) before the rest of the slug rules apply, keeping international titles readable as clean Latin slugs.

Why does punctuation disappear but hyphens stay?

A slug allows only lowercase letters, digits and hyphens - all other punctuation is stripped and whitespace collapses to single hyphens, matching what common CMS platforms generate.
