Slug Generator

A slug generator turns any title or phrase into a clean, URL-friendly string of lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens, the kind you see in a webpage's URL. Type or paste a title below and get an instant, ready-to-use slug for a blog post, product page, or documentation link. Toggle lowercase conversion and stopword removal (dropping small words like “the,” “and,” and “of”) to control exactly how long and how clean the result is. Everything happens instantly in your browser, so nothing you type is ever sent to a server.

How to use

  1. Type or paste your title into the input box.
  2. Toggle "Lowercase" on to force the slug to lowercase (recommended for URLs).
  3. Toggle "Remove common stopwords" on to drop small words like "the," "and," and "of" for a shorter slug.
  4. Copy the generated slug with the Copy button and use it in your URL.

Example usage

Say you start with: The Quick, Brown Fox Jumps! Over the Lazy Dog

Keep lowercase on and leave stopwords alone, and you'll get: the-quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-the-lazy-dog

Switch on stopword removal as well, and it trims down to: quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-lazy-dog

FAQ

A slug is the readable part of a URL, usually just lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens strung together. It's what makes a link easy to read and share, and it gives search engines a bit of helpful context too.

It does. Punctuation and symbols get stripped out, spaces turn into hyphens, and if you end up with several hyphens in a row, they're collapsed down to just one.

Not yet. Right now the generator only keeps plain A-Z letters, numbers and hyphens, so accented characters and non-Latin scripts get dropped along the way.

No, nothing leaves your browser. The whole conversion happens locally, so whatever you type stays on your machine.

Search engines like Google treat a hyphen as a word separator but often read an underscore as joining two words into one. Hyphens keep each word distinct, which is why this generator always uses them.

Shorter is generally better. Many SEO guides recommend keeping slugs under about 5-6 words so they stay readable and don't get truncated in search results.

The output field is read-only, so make changes to your title above and the slug regenerates automatically, or copy the result and edit it manually wherever you're using it.
