URL Slug Generator

Title or text

Frequently asked questions

How does it create a slug?

It lowercases the text, strips combining accent marks, removes everything that is not a letter, number, space or hyphen, and then replaces runs of spaces with single hyphens.

Does it handle accented characters?

Combining accent marks are stripped during conversion, so a decomposed accented letter keeps its base character. Anything outside a-z, 0-9, spaces and hyphens is removed entirely.

What happens to Chinese or other non-Latin text?

Non-Latin characters are removed, because slugs only keep a-z and 0-9. For Chinese titles you should write a short English or pinyin version instead.

Why does it show the character count?

Shorter URLs rank and share better, so the count helps you keep slugs concise. Aim for roughly three to five meaningful words.
