Slug Generator
Convert any title or phrase into a clean URL slug. Supports custom separators and lowercase output.
How to Use
- Type or paste your title or phrase into the input field. The slug updates in real time as you type — no button press needed.
- Choose your separator — hyphen (-), underscore (_), or dot (.) — and toggle Lowercase on or off. The tool strips accents, removes special characters, and replaces spaces with your chosen separator.
- Copy the generated slug with one click. Use it directly in your CMS, blog post URL, file name, or any context that requires clean, URL-safe identifiers.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a URL slug?
- A URL slug is the human-readable part of a URL that identifies a specific page — like the 'how-to-install-node' in 'example.com/blog/how-to-install-node'. Good slugs are lowercase, use hyphens as separators, and contain only letters, numbers, and hyphens.
- Which separators does the tool support?
- The tool supports three separators: hyphen (-), the most common standard for URLs and SEO; underscore (_), often used in file names and database identifiers; and dot (.), used in some CMS platforms and versioning systems.
- How are special characters and non-ASCII text handled?
- Accented characters are converted to their ASCII equivalents via Unicode normalization. All remaining non-alphanumeric characters are removed. Non-Latin scripts like Chinese or Japanese are stripped entirely — for those, write the slug manually using a romanized version.
