About this tool

The Text to Slug Converter transforms any phrase into a clean, URL-friendly slug that uses only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens. Bloggers and content writers use it to craft SEO-friendly permalinks that match their article titles without the manual character-by-character editing. Developers reach for it when generating file names from user input, creating clean API endpoint paths, or normalising product names into URL-safe identifiers. E-commerce teams use it to build consistent category and product URLs that improve search engine rankings and are easier for customers to read. The tool runs entirely in your browser — no text is ever uploaded, stored, or shared with any server.

Frequently asked questions

What characters are removed or replaced?
Spaces become hyphens. Accented characters are converted to their plain equivalent (é → e). Punctuation and special characters are stripped.
Why hyphens instead of underscores for URLs?
Google treats hyphens as word separators, while underscores can be read as word-joining. Hyphens are generally the SEO-friendly choice for URL slugs.
Is the output always lowercase?
Yes. Slugs are lowercased to avoid case-sensitive URL issues and reduce duplicate-content variants.
Can I use this for file naming?
Absolutely. Slugified names work well for filenames, asset naming, and any system that benefits from clean, URL-safe identifiers.
What about emoji in slugs?
Emoji and other non-standard characters are stripped during conversion to maintain broad compatibility across URLs and file systems.
