This tool strips accented characters down to their base letters, removes punctuation and special characters, then replaces spaces with your chosen separator, producing a clean string safe for use in a URL. For example, '10 Best Budget Laptops in 2026!' becomes '10-best-budget-laptops-in-2026'.
A slug is the human-readable part of a URL identifying a specific page, like the 'best-budget-laptops' in example.com/blog/best-budget-laptops. Clean, descriptive, hyphen-separated slugs are easier to read, share, and are generally considered good practice for SEO compared to URLs with spaces, special characters, or auto-generated IDs.
Entering '10 Best Budget Laptops in 2026!' with a hyphen separator and lowercase enabled produces '10-best-budget-laptops-in-2026', the exclamation mark is stripped entirely, spaces become hyphens, and every letter is lowercased. Disabling lowercase instead would preserve the original capitalization: '10-Best-Budget-Laptops-in-2026'.
Changing a page's slug after it's already been published and indexed, without a redirect from the old URL to the new one, this breaks existing links and loses any accumulated SEO value for that page.
Assuming underscores work identically to hyphens for SEO, most major search engines treat a hyphen as a word separator but don't reliably treat an underscore the same way, hyphens are the safer default.
Generating an extremely long slug directly from a long title, very long slugs are harder to read and share, consider shortening to the essential keywords rather than converting the entire title verbatim.
Hyphens are generally recommended and more widely supported for SEO purposes, most search engines treat hyphens as word separators but don't always treat underscores the same way. This tool defaults to hyphens but supports underscores if your platform requires them.
They're converted to their closest plain-letter equivalent, for example é becomes e, since most URL slugs are expected to use only standard ASCII letters and numbers.
