What is the URL Slug Generator?

A slug is the readable part of a web address, like /how-to-download-youtube-thumbnail. This tool turns titles into lowercase, hyphenated slugs with accents and symbols removed.

How it works

How to use the URL Slug Generator

3 simple steps. No experience needed.

What can you use it for?

  • Create URLs for blog posts or product pages.
  • Clean up file names for a website.
  • Convert a batch of titles at once.

What makes a good slug

Short, lowercase, hyphen-separated, and describing the page: /image-compressor is easier to read, share and remember than /page?id=123 or /the-best-free-online-image-compressor-tool-2026.

Changing existing URLs

If a page is already published, changing its slug breaks existing links. Set up a 301 redirect from the old address to the new one whenever you change it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Hyphens or underscores?

Hyphens. Google treats hyphens as spaces between words, which keeps slugs readable.

Should I remove words like “the” and “of”?

Often, yes — it keeps slugs short. Keep them when removing them changes the meaning.

What happens to accents?

Accented letters are converted to their plain versions (é becomes e) so the slug works everywhere.
