How to use it
Type your title
Paste a headline, product name, or article title into the input field.
Adjust the separator if needed
Hyphens are the SEO default and what most CMSes expect. Switch to underscores only if your target system requires them.
Copy the slug into your URL
The generated slug is ready to drop into your CMS, route definition or filename - no further cleanup needed.
What is it?
A slug is the human-readable, URL-safe portion of a web address - the part after the final slash, like 'seo-online-tools' in /blog/seo-online-tools. A slug generator takes any title and produces a clean slug: lowercase, transliterated (é → e, ñ → n), with spaces and punctuation collapsed into hyphens. The result is stable, keyword-rich and safe for every URL parser, redirect map and analytics pipeline.
When to use it
Use it whenever you publish a new piece of content with a public URL: blog posts, product pages, knowledge-base articles, landing pages. Slugs are also the right shape for filenames in static sites, branch names in git workflows, and identifiers in tools that don't accept arbitrary Unicode.
Common mistakes
Don't include dates or sequential IDs in the slug if you can avoid it - they force you to break URLs every year. Don't change a slug after publication: 404s erase your SEO equity. And avoid stop words like 'the' or 'and' unless they're load-bearing - shorter slugs rank slightly better and copy-paste more cleanly into chat.
