Slug Generator

How it works

We Unicode-normalize the input (NFKD), strip diacritics, lowercase, replace any non-alphanumeric run with the chosen separator, and trim leading/trailing separators. The output is safe to use in any URL path.

Frequently asked

What is a URL slug?

The human-readable part of a URL after the domain — e.g., the "hello-world" in /blog/hello-world. Slugs improve SEO and shareability.

Why hyphens and not underscores?

Google has historically treated hyphens as word separators in URLs but underscores as connectors. Hyphens are the SEO standard.

Are accented characters handled?

Yes — "café" becomes "cafe" via Unicode normalization, so you preserve the meaning while keeping the URL ASCII-safe.
