URL Slug Generator
Turn page titles, product names, and article headlines into clean, readable URL slugs.
Your URL slug
Copy the slug into your website, CMS, product page, or article URL.
Enter a page title, product name, article title, or phrase to create a clean URL slug.
Changing the slug of an existing published page can break old links. If you change an existing URL, use the appropriate redirect so visitors and search engines can reach the new address.
Turn titles and phrases into clean URL slugs
Convert a page title, article headline, product name, or other phrase into a clean URL-friendly slug.
The generator removes punctuation, normalizes accented characters, replaces spaces with a consistent separator, and keeps the result easy to copy.
You can optionally remove common words, set a maximum length, and preview the slug with your website address.
If the page is already published, changing its slug changes its URL. Set up the appropriate redirect before replacing an existing address.
Create a clean slug in four steps
Start with the page title, then adjust only the settings you actually need.
Enter the page title
Paste the page, article, product, or category title you want to convert.
Choose whether to shorten it
Optionally remove common words or set a maximum slug length.
Choose the separator
Use dashes for the standard URL format, or underscores if your system specifically requires them.
Copy the slug
Add the finished slug to your CMS, ecommerce platform, or website.
Example article slug
Suppose your article title is '10 Tips for Better Product Photos'.
The generated slug would be 10-tips-for-better-product-photos. If your website is https://example.com, the preview would be https://example.com/10-tips-for-better-product-photos/.
What makes a useful URL slug
A useful slug is readable, descriptive, and simple enough to understand without opening the page.
Describe the page clearly
Keep the words that tell visitors what the page is actually about.
Keep it readable
Use normal words and a consistent separator instead of long strings of symbols or IDs when you control the URL.
Avoid unnecessary words
If a title is very long, remove words that do not help identify the page topic.
Be careful with existing URLs
Do not casually change the slug of a published page. Existing links may need to be redirected to the new URL.
URL slug generator questions
Common questions about creating clean page URLs.
What is a URL slug?
A slug is the part of a page URL that usually identifies the specific page, such as product-photo-tips in example.com/product-photo-tips/.
Should I use dashes or underscores?
Dashes are the normal choice for readable website URLs. Use underscores only when a particular platform or system requires them.
Should I remove words like 'the' and 'for'?
Not automatically. Remove common words when they make a long slug shorter without making the meaning less clear.
Can I use accented letters?
The generator converts accented characters to a URL-friendly form where possible, so the finished slug is easier to use across common website systems.
Is it safe to change the slug of an existing page?
Changing a slug changes the page URL. If the old URL has already been published or indexed, use the appropriate redirect so existing links continue to work.
