Frequently Asked Questions

What is a URL slug?

A slug is the part of a URL that identifies a page in human-readable form, like /how-to-bake-bread. Slugs should be lowercase, use words separated by hyphens, and contain no special characters.

How are special characters handled?

Accented characters are normalized to their base letter (café → cafe), and any run of non-alphanumeric characters becomes your chosen separator. Leading and trailing separators are trimmed.

Which separator should I use?

Hyphens are the SEO standard and recommended for most websites. Underscores are used by some systems but Google treats them as word separators less reliably than hyphens.

Is my text sent anywhere?

No. Slug generation happens entirely in your browser.
