Slug Generator
Use our free slug generator to turn any page title into a clean, SEO-friendly URL slug. This URL slug generator, also called a slug maker, removes punctuation, handles accents and gives you a readable address that works well for visitors and search engines. No sign-up is needed.
Type a title above to get a clean, URL-friendly slug. Keep slugs short, readable and close to the page topic. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded or stored.
How to use the Slug Generator
- Type or paste your page title in the input box.
- Choose hyphens or underscores as your separator — hyphens are selected by default.
- Tick “Remove common stop words” if you want a shorter slug, and set a maximum slug length if you need one.
- Copy the finished slug and use it as the last part of your page address.
Why use a permalink generator?
- Create a clean URL quickly, without editing punctuation and spaces by hand.
- Use slugify-style output that is safe in any link, with accents converted to plain letters.
- Compare versions with and without stop words, and keep the one that reads best.
- Control slug length, so long titles do not turn into very long addresses.
- Work entirely in your browser — your titles are not uploaded or stored.

Frequently asked questions
You can, but the old address will stop working, so set up a redirect from the old slug to the new one first, and update any internal links. For new pages it is much easier — choose the slug before you publish.
Letters with accents are converted to their plain form (for example é becomes e), punctuation is removed, and spaces become your chosen separator, so the slug is safe to use in any URL.
No. This slug generator runs in your browser. Your titles are used only to build the slugs you copy, and they are not uploaded or stored.
Hyphens are the usual choice for URLs, because they are widely treated as word separators and are easier to read in a link. This generator lets you choose either, with hyphens selected by default.
Use the main topic words of the page title, kept natural — a short slug like “beginner-camera-guide” is better than a long one stuffed with every keyword you can think of. Readability matters more than keyword count.
Stop words are small joining words such as a, the, and, of and in. Removing them makes slugs shorter, which can help long titles, but it is optional — keep them if the slug reads better with them. This tool has a checkbox so you can compare both versions.
A slug is the last part of a web address, after the domain and folder names — for example “slug-generator” in example.com/slug-generator/. A good slug is short, readable and tells the visitor and the search engine what the page is about.
