About this tool

  1. 1

    Enter your text

    Type or paste a title, heading, or phrase that you want to convert into a URL-friendly slug.

  2. 2

    Review the generated slug

    See the cleaned slug with lowercase letters, hyphens replacing spaces, and special characters removed.

  3. 3

    Customize options

    Adjust settings like maximum length, separator character (hyphen or underscore), and transliteration for accented characters.

  4. 4

    Copy and use

    Copy the slug to your clipboard and paste it into your CMS, router configuration, or file naming system.

  • Keep slugs under 60 characters for readability and to avoid truncation in browser address bars.
  • Remove stop words (a, the, is, of) from slugs to keep them concise - "how-to-build-a-website" becomes "build-website".
  • Use hyphens as separators, not underscores - Google treats hyphens as word separators but underscores as joiners.
  • Include your target keyword in the slug for a small but meaningful SEO benefit.
  • Instant conversion of any text to URL-safe slugs
  • Unicode and accented character transliteration (e.g., u to u)
  • Configurable separator character and maximum length
  • Automatic removal of special characters and duplicate separators
  • Generate SEO-friendly URLs for blog posts and articles in a CMS
  • Create consistent file naming conventions for a project or asset library
  • Produce clean route paths for a web application or API
  • Convert multilingual titles into ASCII-safe URL segments
Use hyphens. Google officially recommends hyphens as word separators in URLs. Underscores are treated as part of the word, reducing SEO value.
Yes, slightly. Descriptive slugs with relevant keywords help search engines understand page content and can improve click-through rates in search results.
Accented and non-Latin characters are transliterated to their closest ASCII equivalents (e.g., "cafe" from "cafe", "strasse" from "Strasse").
