Frequently asked questions
What is a URL slug?
A slug is the readable part of a URL that identifies a page, like 'better-seo-tips' in example.com/better-seo-tips. It uses lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens.
Is this slug generator free?
Yes — it's a completely free online slug generator with no sign-up and no limits.
Does it handle accented characters?
Yes. Accents are stripped to their plain ASCII letters, so 'Café Münchén' becomes 'cafe-munchen'.
Can I use underscores instead of hyphens?
Yes. Turn on 'Underscores' to join words with _ instead of -. Hyphens are the SEO-friendly default.
Why are slugs lowercased?
Lowercase slugs avoid duplicate-URL issues since some servers treat /Page and /page differently. Turn on 'Keep case' if you need to preserve capitals.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. Slugs are generated in your browser with no upload, so your titles never leave your device.
