How to generate a slug
- Type or paste your title or text.
- Choose a separator (hyphen or underscore) and whether to lowercase it.
- Copy the generated slug.
What makes a good slug
A good URL slug is short, lowercase, uses hyphens instead of spaces, and strips punctuation and accented characters so it works reliably in any URL, filename, or system that expects plain ASCII.
Common use cases
- Create a clean URL slug from a blog post title
- Generate a filename-safe version of a product name
- Convert text with accents or symbols into a plain slug
Frequently asked questions
Is this tool free?
Yes. It is completely free, with no signup and no limits.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. Slugs are generated entirely in your browser.
Does this handle accented characters?
Yes. Accents are stripped automatically, so "Café" becomes "cafe."
Can I use an underscore instead of a hyphen?
Yes. Choose your preferred separator from the dropdown.
Why use hyphens instead of underscores in URLs?
Search engines generally treat hyphens as word separators but not underscores, so hyphens are the more common convention for SEO-friendly URLs.
