What is a URL Slug?
A URL slug is the portion of a web address that identifies a specific page on your website. Good slugs are short, descriptive, and contain only letters, numbers, and separators like hyphens or underscores. They help both users and search engines understand what a page is about before clicking on the link.
How to Use This Tool
Simply type or paste your text into the input field above, and watch as the slug is generated in real-time. You can customize the output by choosing between hyphens and underscores as separators, toggling lowercase conversion on or off, and setting a maximum character limit. The tool automatically handles special characters and accented letters by converting them to their closest ASCII equivalents.
Best Practices for URL Slugs
For optimal SEO and usability, keep your slugs concise and descriptive. Use hyphens as separators since search engines treat them as word separators. Always use lowercase letters to avoid duplicate content issues, and remove unnecessary words like articles and prepositions. A well-crafted slug improves click-through rates and helps your content rank better in search results.
