URL Slug Generator
Convert any text, including Arabic, into a clean, URL-friendly slug — updates live as you type.
How to use this tool
Type or paste your title or text — the slug updates live below. Check "Transliterate Arabic to Latin" if you want an ASCII-only slug instead of one that keeps Arabic characters.
About this tool
Lowercases Latin text, replaces spaces and underscores with hyphens, removes characters that aren't letters, numbers, or hyphens (keeping Unicode letters like Arabic by default), collapses repeated hyphens, and trims leading/trailing hyphens.
Arabic transliteration uses a common simplified letter-mapping scheme — approximate, not a linguistically rigorous transliteration standard.
Frequently asked questions
Should Arabic URLs keep Arabic characters or use Latin transliteration?
Both are used in practice. Keeping Arabic characters in the slug is increasingly common and can help Arabic-language SEO, since search engines display and match Arabic URLs natively. Latin transliteration is sometimes preferred for broader compatibility with older systems or when a site's audience is mixed. This tool supports both — transliteration is optional.
What does a slug generator actually do?
It lowercases the text (for Latin script), replaces spaces and underscores with hyphens, strips characters that aren't letters, numbers, or hyphens, collapses repeated hyphens, and trims leading/trailing hyphens — producing a clean string safe to use in a URL path.
