FAQ

What is a URL slug?

A URL slug is the part of a web address that identifies a specific page in a readable way. For example, in example.com/blog/my-first-post, the slug is my-first-post. Good slugs are lowercase, use hyphens between words, and contain no special characters.

Why are slugs important for SEO?

Clean, descriptive slugs help search engines understand page content and improve click-through rates by showing users readable URLs. Keywords in slugs can contribute to search rankings and user experience.

How does this handle special characters?

The generator removes or transliterates special characters, accents, and unicode symbols into their ASCII equivalents. Spaces become hyphens, and consecutive special characters are condensed into single hyphens.
