Helpful Tips

Get better results with these suggestions

Prefer hyphens

Search engines treat hyphens as word separators, while underscores can join words together.

Keep it short

Remove filler words like "the", "and" or "of" and aim for three to five meaningful words.

Include the main keyword

Put the page's primary keyword in the slug, but avoid stuffing it with repeated terms.

Don't change live slugs

Changing the slug of a published page breaks links. If you must, add a 301 redirect from the old URL.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions

What is a URL slug?

A slug is the part of a URL that identifies a specific page in a readable form. In example.com/blog/healthy-breakfast-ideas, the slug is "healthy-breakfast-ideas".

Should I use hyphens or underscores?

Hyphens are recommended. Google treats hyphens as spaces between words, while words joined by underscores may be read as one word.

How long should a slug be?

There is no strict limit, but short slugs of about three to five words are easier to read, share and remember. Use the max-length option to keep them compact.

What happens to accented or special characters?

Accented letters are converted to their plain equivalents where possible, and punctuation and symbols are replaced with the chosen separator.

Is the Slug Generator free?

Yes. You can generate as many slugs as you like for free, without an account.
