URL Slug Generator

Paste a page title to get a clean, readable slug for your URL. Accents are removed and punctuation stripped.

How it works

Good slugs are short, lowercase, use hyphens between words, and contain the main keywords. Search engines treat hyphens as word separators but not underscores. The generator normalises accented letters (é becomes e), drops punctuation, collapses repeated separators and trims the ends.

Frequently asked questions

Should I use hyphens or underscores in URLs?

Hyphens. Google treats them as word separators, while underscores join words together.

How long should a slug be?

Roughly 3 to 6 words. Shorter slugs are easier to read and share.

Should I remove stop words?

Removing words like 'the' and 'for' keeps slugs short, but keep them if removal would change the meaning.
