How to Use the Slug Generator

Enter any text — a blog post title, product name, or page heading — and instantly get a clean, SEO-friendly URL slug. The tool automatically:

  • Converts spaces to hyphens (or underscores)
  • Removes special characters and accents
  • Converts to lowercase
  • Handles Unicode text including accented characters

Why URL Slugs Matter for SEO

Clean, descriptive URL slugs help search engines understand your page content. Google recommends using hyphens to separate words in URLs, keeping them short, and including your target keyword.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a URL slug?

A URL slug is the part of a web address that identifies a specific page in a human-readable form. For example, in "example.com/blog/my-first-post", the slug is "my-first-post". Good slugs are lowercase, use hyphens to separate words, and contain relevant keywords.

Does this tool support non-Latin characters?

Yes. The slug generator handles Unicode text including accented characters (which are converted to their base form), and preserves CJK characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) and Hangul in the output slug.

Should I use hyphens or underscores in slugs?

Google recommends hyphens (-) over underscores (_) for URL word separators. Hyphens are treated as word separators by search engines, while underscores are not, which can affect how your pages are indexed and ranked.
