Quick answer
How do you create a URL slug from a title?
To create a slug, convert the text to lowercase, strip accents and special characters, then replace spaces with hyphens. You can also remove stop words or numbers to shorten the URL. Example: "My Summer in Paris: 10 Ideas!" becomes my-summer-in-paris-10-ideas, a readable address that works well for SEO. Note that the stop word list used here is French.
About the Text to URL Converter
What is it?
The text to slug converter transforms any title or text into a clean, readable URL optimized for search engine optimization (SEO).
Why use it?
A clean URL is a positive SEO signal for Google and improves user experience. Accents, spaces and special characters in URLs can cause errors and harm rankings.
How does it work?
Enter your text (article title, product name, category name...). The tool automatically removes accents, converts to lowercase and replaces spaces and special characters with hyphens.
Usage tips
- Keep slugs short: 3 to 5 words maximum for an ideal URL
- Include your main keyword in the slug
- Use hyphens (-) as separators, not underscores (_)
- Avoid stop words (the, a, an, of, for...) in slugs
- Never change an existing slug without setting up a 301 redirect
