CyberCodeURL Slug Generator
Free online URL slug generator. Convert titles into clean, lowercase, SEO-friendly slugs — removes accents and special characters, supports hyphen or underscore separators.
What is a URL slug and why does it matter?
A slug is the readable identifier at the end of a URL — 'my-first-post' in example.com/blog/my-first-post. Good slugs are lowercase, hyphen-separated, free of accents and special characters, and contain the page's main keyword.
Slugs matter for SEO in two ways: Google treats hyphens as word separators (underscores are treated as joiners), and readable URLs get more clicks in search results. This generator also strips diacritics (é → e) so slugs stay ASCII-safe on every server.

Frequently asked questions
- What is a URL slug?
- A slug is the human-readable part of a URL that identifies a page, like 'my-first-post' in example.com/blog/my-first-post. Clean slugs improve both SEO and click-through rates.
- Should I use hyphens or underscores in slugs?
- Hyphens. Google treats hyphens as word separators but treats underscores as word joiners, so hyphen-separated slugs are better for SEO.
- How are accented characters handled?
- Accents are stripped to their base letters (é becomes e) using Unicode normalisation, so the slug stays ASCII-safe for all browsers and servers.
