URL slug generator — create SEO-friendly URL slugs

The URL Slug Generator converts your page title or keyword phrase into a clean, hyphenated, lowercase URL slug. Spaces become hyphens, special characters and punctuation are removed, and consecutive hyphens are collapsed into one.

A clean URL slug improves readability, makes links easier to share, and follows the format Google recommends for page URLs. Consistent slugs also prevent duplicate URL variations for the same page, which helps avoid accidental duplicate content issues.

What makes a good URL slug

  • Lowercase letters only (no capital letters)
  • Words separated by hyphens, not underscores or spaces
  • Short and descriptive — include the target keyword
  • No special characters, punctuation, or query parameters
  • No stop words unless they are part of the target keyword phrase

Slug format examples

"How to Compress Images Online" → how-to-compress-images-online
"10 Best SEO Tips for 2025 (Tested & Ranked!)" → 10-best-seo-tips-for-2025-tested-ranked
"Product Name: Model XYZ / Version 3.0" → product-name-model-xyz-version-3-0
