URL Slug Generator

About this URL Slug Generator tool

A slug is the readable part of a URL that identifies a page, such as the end of /finance/sip-calculator.html. Good slugs are short, lowercase, use hyphens between words and avoid special characters. This tool turns any title into a clean slug.

How to use it

  1. Paste your page title.
  2. Click Generate.
  3. Copy the slug and use it in your URL.

Example

How to Calculate SIP Returns in 2026  →  how-to-calculate-sip-returns-in-2026

Frequently asked questions

Hyphens or underscores?

Use hyphens. Google treats hyphens as word separators.

Should slugs include stop words like 'the' or 'and'?

You can drop them to keep the slug short, as long as it stays readable.

Can I change a slug later?

You can, but set up a redirect from the old URL, or you will lose its search ranking and links.
