URL slug generator

A slug generator is the part of a URL humans still read. This URL slug generator (also an online slug generator, online text to slug generator, and custom slug generator) lowercases, strips Latin diacritics, and hyphenates — entirely in the tab, so draft titles never hit a network.

What a URL slug is

A slug is the path segment after your domain: https://example.com/cafe-deja-vu-2024/. Good slugs are:

• Lowercase
• Hyphen-separated (not spaces or underscores for most public URLs)
• Free of punctuation that breaks paths
• Readable enough for humans and search engines

This tool builds that handle from a title or headline in one paste.

Bulk slug generator

Paste one title per line. Each non-empty line becomes its own slug. Empty lines stay empty so a list stays aligned. That is the bulk slug generator: a sitemap of headlines becomes a column of handles in one pass.

Useful for content migrations, CSV exports of titles, and editorial calendars that need permalinks before publish.

SEO-friendly slug generator for Arabic

Latin accents fold to ASCII (café → cafe). Arabic letters are kept, so مقال عن التحويل becomes a readable Arabic slug instead of an empty string. That is what search engines index for Arabic URLs. German ß becomes ss.

If your CMS requires ASCII-only paths, transliterate before slugify or post-process — this generator prefers readable native letters when they are letters, not punctuation.

Slugify vs kebab-case vs lowercase

Tool	Job
Slugify	URL-safe handle: strip punctuation, fold Latin accents, hyphenate, keep Arabic letters
kebab-case	Identifier style with hyphens; less aggressive about unicode cleanup
lower case	Only changes letter case; keeps spaces and punctuation

Start from a styled headline with Title Case, then slugify the same paste (text carries across tools in this session). For title-tag length and casing choices, see title case for SEO and SERP titles. For a full permalink workflow, see slugify for SEO. For CSS class names rather than URLs, use kebab-case.

Word, Excel, Docs, and CMS

Word, Excel, and Google Docs do not generate CMS-ready slugs. Teams usually type permalinks by hand, use a plugin, or run a spreadsheet formula that breaks on accents and punctuation.

Typical workflow: finalize the title in Title Case or your CMS → paste into this slug generator → copy into WordPress, Astro, Contentful, or your static site front matter. For a column of titles in Excel, paste the column here (one per line) and paste slugs back as values.

Reserved path segments (admin, api, language codes, …) still need a human glance — the generator does not know your router.

How to use this page
