URL slug generator.
Transform a headline into a lowercase hyphenated URL slug, simplifying Latin accents while preserving other writing systems.
Type a headline, product name or page title. The URL-friendly slug updates instantly.
Spaces and punctuation become hyphens; Latin accents are simplified. Other writing systems stay readable in their original scripts. A slug alone does not make a page rank.
How to use this tool
- Paste a page title, blog headline or product name into the text box.
- Check the lowercase, hyphen-separated slug generated live.
- Copy the slug into your page URL and keep the address short and meaningful.
Good to know
A descriptive URL can help readers understand the page, but it is not a ranking shortcut. Avoid changing URLs of existing pages without arranging proper redirects.

A readable URL helps people know where they are
A page address such as /blog/how-to-compress-images/ tells a reader more than /blog/post-2847/. A short descriptive slug is useful for copying a link, sharing it and understanding where it leads.
This generator lowercases your title, joins words with hyphens and removes unnecessary punctuation. It simplifies many Latin accents while preserving letters in other writing systems so a title is not reduced to an empty slug.
Don't keep changing old links
For a new article, settle on a stable URL before publication. For an old article, changing the slug can break bookmarks and incoming links unless you implement a redirect from the old address.
The words in a slug should reflect the page rather than try to cram in every keyword variation. Search engines use far more than the address when deciding which page answers a query.
Practical examples
The title "How to Compress Images (2026)" becomes how-to-compress-images-2026. A product named "Summer Sale — Blue Linen Shirt" becomes summer-sale-blue-linen-shirt.
The tool works in your browser without requiring a login or sending a draft title to our server.
Questions about url slug generator
Should I include a keyword in my URL slug?
Use words that naturally describe the page. Avoid stuffing repeated or irrelevant phrases into the address.
Can a slug contain non-English characters?
Yes. Modern URLs support Unicode, although browsers may percent-encode those characters when showing or sharing the full address.
Will changing a slug improve rankings?
There is no guaranteed ranking benefit. For existing pages, weigh clarity against the cost of redirects and broken links.
