Slugify: Turn Text Into Clean URLs
By Task Toolify · Thu, Oct 30, 2025
Clean, readable URLs help both people and search engines. Slugify transforms any text into a consistent, lowercase, hyphen-separated slug in one step.
Features
- Removes diacritics (café → cafe)
- Replaces spaces with hyphens
- Strips punctuation and special characters
- Lowercases everything for consistency
Examples
- “Hello, World!” →
hello-world - “Café & Bistro Specials” →
cafe-bistro-specials - “2025 Product Roadmap” →
2025-product-roadmap
Best practices
- Keep slugs short and descriptive
- Avoid stop words when possible (a, the, of)
- Update slugs carefully — changing URLs affects links
Use Slugify whenever you create new pages, blog posts, or assets that require predictable URLs.
