About this tool
Gearizen's Slugify tool transforms product titles, article headlines, and campaign names into SEO-friendly URLs that stay readable across devices. Content strategists, developers, and marketing managers rely on it to enforce naming conventions without memorizing edge cases. Simply paste your phrase, choose the separator that matches your CMS, and the tool produces a clean slug instantly. It also strips stray punctuation, trims whitespace, and transliterates accented characters so your international content fits smoothly into sitemaps and analytics dashboards.
Beyond the basics, this slug generator gives granular control over case sensitivity and delimiter handling. Collapse duplicate separators, remove stop words, or preserve uppercase characters when you are slugifying acronyms or brand names. Because the entire process runs in the browser, you never risk leaking unpublished product names or confidential roadmap features. The UI updates as you type, making it ideal for editorial checklists, Shopify uploads, or programmatic naming for micro-sites.
The long-form guidance on this page explains how clean slugs influence organic rankings, click-through rates, and shareability across social channels. We detail why hyphenated slugs tend to outperform underscores, when to include target keywords, and how to keep slugs short without losing meaning. Use the insights to brief stakeholders, document team standards, or audit existing content that needs a refresh. SEO teams can also learn how to redirect legacy URLs safely and align slug structures with multilingual expansion plans.
For a complete content workflow, explore related Gearizen tools like the UUID Generator for unique identifiers, the Case Converter for harmonizing headline styles, and the Markdown Preview for validating how slugs appear in internal links.
