# Generating URL Slugs with CSV/JSON Export and 301 Redirects Every page you publish needs a URL slug, and writing them by hand gets tedious once you have dozens of titles, product names or headings. Slug Generator is a free web tool that converts article titles, product names and headings into clean URL slugs as you type. This note focuses on accent removal and the workflow around it; to follow along, see [the sluggenerator.dev web app with transliteration](https://sluggenerator.dev/). ## Key capabilities - **CSV (UTF-8 BOM) and JSON export.** - **Base URL preview and SEO length indicator.** - **Bulk CSV:** slug and URL columns, unique duplicates, and 301 redirects for .htaccess, Nginx and Cloudflare Bulk Redirects. - **Editable stop words:** with Spanish, French and German presets. - **Word-boundary truncation:** limit slugs by max words or max characters. - **Separators:** hyphen, underscore, dot or none, plus a lowercase toggle. ## How to generate slugs step by step 1. Open Slug Generator in a desktop or mobile browser; there is no account and nothing to install. 2. Paste your titles, one per line (up to 1,000 lines). Slugs appear as you type. 3. Pick a separator: hyphen, underscore, dot or none, and set the lowercase toggle. 4. Remove SEO stop words using the editable list (Spanish, French and German presets are included). 5. Cap each slug by maximum words or characters; truncation respects word boundaries. 6. Export the results as CSV or JSON, or copy a matching slugify() snippet. ## Use cases - **Blog migrations:** Convert a list of post titles into slugs and generate 301 redirects for the old URLs. - **Content planning:** Preview full links by adding a base URL before anything goes live. - **Developer handoff:** Copy a JavaScript, Python or PHP slugify() function that reproduces the settings you chose. ## Extra tools Alongside the main generator there are extra tools: a 301 Redirect Generator, a Kebab Case Converter, a UTM Builder, a URL Encoder/Decoder, Remove Accents and a Slug Checker. The interface is available in English and 简体中文. ## What it is not It is not a CMS plugin and not a paid API or SaaS service, and it needs no login. The code snippets do not include pinyin conversion; only the web tool supports pinyin. ## Summary Slug Generator is free, private and quick: titles in, consistent slugs out, with CSV/JSON export and matching slugify() code. Everything runs in the browser, with no sign-up and no uploads. Open it, paste a few titles and compare the output with your current slugs.
