Frequently Asked Questions
What is a URL slug?
A URL slug is the user-friendly, readable part of a URL that identifies a specific page. For example, in "example.com/how-to-bake-bread", the slug is "how-to-bake-bread". Good slugs are short, descriptive, and use hyphens to separate words.
Why are URL slugs important for SEO?
Clean, descriptive slugs help search engines understand page content and improve click-through rates. They should be short, include keywords, and use hyphens to separate words. URLs with readable slugs tend to rank better and get more clicks.
Should I use hyphens or underscores in URLs?
Google recommends hyphens (-) over underscores (_) because hyphens are treated as word separators, while underscores are not. "my-page" is read as two words, but "my_page" as one. Always use hyphens for SEO-friendly URLs.
How long should a URL slug be?
Keep slugs under 60 characters for best results. Shorter slugs are easier to read, share, and remember. Remove unnecessary words like "the", "and", "a" when possible to keep URLs concise and focused on keywords.
Is my text stored or shared?
No. All slug generation happens entirely in your browser. Your text is never sent to any server, stored, or shared. This tool is 100% private and works offline once loaded.
