Slug Generator

About the slugify

Turn a title or phrase into a clean URL slug: lowercase, with spaces replaced by hyphens or underscores and punctuation removed. Use it for blog post URLs, page paths and file names. It updates as you type.

How to use it

  1. Type or paste your title.
  2. Choose a separator: hyphen or underscore.
  3. Copy the generated slug with the copy button.

Questions

What is a URL slug?
The readable part of a URL that identifies a page, such as how-to-bake-bread in example.com/blog/how-to-bake-bread.
Should I use hyphens or underscores in URLs?
Hyphens. Google's guidance recommends hyphens to separate words in URLs, because underscores can be read as joining words together.
What happens to accented letters and symbols?
Anything that is not a plain letter a–z, a digit, a space or a hyphen is removed, so "Café & Bar" becomes caf-bar. Replace accented letters by hand first if you want to keep them, for example "cafe".
