About Slugify

A URL slug is the readable, URL-friendly version of a title: lowercase, accent-free, and hyphen-separated. Paste a title and this slug generator returns a clean slug instantly — accents are transliterated (é → e), punctuation is removed, and runs of separators collapse to one. Great for SEO-friendly page and blog URLs, and it runs entirely in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

What is a URL slug?

A slug is the part of a URL that names a specific page, usually after the domain — the 'my-post-title' in example.com/blog/my-post-title. A readable, keyword-containing slug is easier to share and gives search engines a clear signal about the page's topic.

Should I use a hyphen or underscore in a slug?

Hyphens. Google treats hyphens as word separators in URLs but underscores as joiners, so hyphens are the SEO standard and the default here. You can switch to an underscore if your system requires it.

How are accents and special characters handled?

Accented and non-Latin characters are transliterated to their closest ASCII form (é → e, ö → oe, ß → ss, & → and), punctuation is stripped, and the result is lowercased — so 'Café & Crème' becomes 'cafe-and-creme'.

How do I convert a title to a slug?

Paste or type the title and copy the slug that appears instantly. It's all local to your browser — nothing is uploaded.
