What Is a Slug?

A slug is a URL-friendly version of a string. For example, "Hello World! How Are You?" becomes hello-world-how-are-you. Slugs are used in URLs, file names, and identifiers where special characters and spaces aren't allowed.

Features

• Real-time conversion — slug updates as you type
• Accent transliteration — converts ä→a, ñ→n, ü→u, etc.
• Custom separator — hyphen, underscore, or dot
• Max length — truncate slugs at word boundaries

SEO Best Practices for URL Slugs

• Keep slugs short and descriptive
• Use hyphens, not underscores (Google treats hyphens as word separators)
• Use lowercase letters only
• Remove stop words when they don't add meaning (a, the, is, etc.)
