Slug Generator

Turn a page title into a short, readable, lowercase URL slug.

What makes a good URL slug

A practical slug is short, readable, lowercase, and separated by hyphens. It should describe the page clearly without stuffing in extra words. Good slugs help visitors understand a link before they open it.

How this generator works

  1. It lowercases the title.
  2. It removes accents and unsupported symbols.
  3. It replaces groups of non-letter characters with hyphens.
  4. It removes extra hyphens from the beginning and end.

FAQ

Should a slug include every word from the title?

No. Keep the important words and remove filler when the result is too long.

Are hyphens better than underscores?

Hyphens are the common choice for readable web URLs because they separate words clearly.

Can I change a slug later?

You can, but published URLs should be changed carefully. Set up a redirect from the old URL so visitors and search engines do not hit a broken page.
