SEO slug tips

  • Keep slugs under 60–70 characters — shorter URLs rank better and are easier to share.
  • Use hyphens as separators. Google recommends hyphens over underscores for readability.
  • Remove stop words to keep slugs concise and keyword-focused.
  • All processing happens in your browser — nothing is sent to any server.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1

What is a URL slug?

A URL slug is the human-readable part of a web address that identifies a specific page — for example, how-to-format-json in /blog/how-to-format-json. It is lowercase, hyphenated, and free of special characters.

Q2

What characters does the slug generator remove or replace?

It converts uppercase to lowercase, replaces spaces with hyphens, removes special characters and punctuation, strips accents from letters, and collapses multiple hyphens into one.

Q3

Why do URLs use hyphens instead of underscores?

Search engines treat hyphens as word separators and underscores as word joiners. Hyphenated slugs are easier for both humans and crawlers to read and are the recommended convention for SEO-friendly URLs.

Q4

Can I use generated slugs directly in my CMS or blog?

Yes. Generated slugs are ready to paste into CMS URL fields, blog post paths, and route definitions. Always verify the slug is unique in your system before publishing.
