Text to Slug Converter

SEO-Friendly URLs Made Easy

A "slug" is the part of a URL that identifies a specific page.

• Bad URL: example.com/post.php?id=832
• Good URL: example.com/how-to-bake-cake Search engines like Google prioritize readable, descriptive URLs. Our Text to Slug Converter takes any title—no matter how messy—and transforms it into a clean, valid URL slug.

What It Does

1. Lowercases: "Hello World" -> "hello world"
2. Hyphenates: Replaces spaces with dashes ("hello-world").
3. Sanitizes: Removes special characters like ?, !, @, #.
4. Transliterates: Converts accented characters (é, ü, ñ) to their ASCII equivalents (e, u, n).

Why Slugs Matter

• Click-Through Rate (CTR): Users are more likely to click safe-looking links.
• Keywords: Placing keywords in the URL (e.g., /best-gaming-mouse) is a ranking factor.
• Shareability: Clean URLs look better on social media cards.
