How do I create a clean URL slug from a title?

Short answer

Use a free slug generator that turns a title into a lowercase, hyphenated URL slug in the browser. It strips punctuation and spaces so the result is a clean, readable path segment. It needs no account and nothing is uploaded.

What makes a good slug

A URL slug is the readable part of a link that comes from your title, and a clean one is lowercase, uses hyphens between words, and drops odd characters. Good slugs are easier for people to read and share and keep your URLs tidy. A generator does the conversion consistently so every page follows the same rule.

Consistent and local

The tool converts your title in your browser, so the text is never sent anywhere. You paste in a title, get a slug back instantly, and can tweak it before copying it into your CMS, which keeps your whole set of URLs following one predictable pattern, with no sign-up and no limit.

Step by step

  1. Open the slug generator. Open the slug generator in your browser.
  2. Enter your title. Paste the title or phrase you want to turn into a slug.
  3. Copy the slug. Copy the lowercase hyphenated slug into your URL or CMS.
