About Slug Generator
Slug Generator turns any title or sentence into a clean, URL-safe slug — the part of a URL that comes after your domain and identifies the page (for example, "/blog/how-to-write-good-slugs"). Type your text, choose a separator (hyphen, underscore, or dot), and copy the result.
Slugs need to be ASCII-friendly, lowercase, and free of punctuation so they work everywhere — in URLs, file paths, database keys, and filenames. The tool handles the trickier cases automatically: strips diacritics from accented characters (so "café" becomes "cafe"), collapses whitespace and existing punctuation into your chosen separator, removes leading and trailing separators, and optionally truncates the result to a max length without leaving a trailing dash.
Common uses include generating SEO-friendly URLs from blog post titles, creating safe file names from user-uploaded names, building page paths in static site generators, naming Kubernetes resources, and producing predictable identifiers from human-readable strings.
Hyphens are the standard for SEO — Google treats them as word separators in URLs, while underscores are not. Underscores are common in filenames and database identifiers. Dots are useful for nested namespaces.
