How to use Slugify — URL Slug Generator

  1. 1

    Type or paste a title

    Enter a page title, heading, or any phrase in the input panel; the URL slug updates live as you type with no button to press.

  2. 2

    Choose a separator

    Select a hyphen (-) for standard SEO-friendly kebab-case, or an underscore (_) if your platform requires it; spaces and repeated symbols collapse into that separator.

  3. 3

    Toggle lowercase

    Keep Lowercase enabled for clean canonical URLs, or turn it off to preserve the original capitalization of letters.

  4. 4

    Copy the slug

    Click Copy to grab the finished slug for your CMS, blog post, or permalink.

Frequently asked questions

What is a URL slug?
A slug is the readable part of a web address that names a page, such as 'how-to-bake-bread' in example.com/blog/how-to-bake-bread. Good slugs are short, descriptive, and use hyphens between words instead of spaces or special characters.
How does it handle accents and special characters?
Accented letters and diacritics are transliterated to their plain ASCII equivalents (for example, 'Café' becomes 'cafe' and 'Über' becomes 'uber'), while symbols and punctuation are stripped out so only URL-safe characters remain.
Can I use underscores instead of hyphens?
Yes. A separator control lets you switch between hyphens and underscores. Hyphens are generally recommended for SEO because search engines treat them as word separators, but underscores are available when a system requires them.
Does the slug really update as I type?
Yes, slug generation is live and instant. Every keystroke re-renders the slug in real time, so you can fine-tune a title and immediately see the clean URL it produces.
Is my text private?
Completely. Everything runs client-side in your browser, so titles and slugs are never uploaded to a server. The tool is free, needs no account, and works even offline once loaded.
