Guide

What makes a good URL slug?

A slug is the part of the URL after the domain that identifies the page: /blog/best-running-shoes. Good slugs are short, lowercase, use hyphens between words, and include the main keyword. Google recommends hyphens over underscores and simple, readable URLs.

Avoid dates and changing details ("2026", "top-10") in slugs, so you can update the article later without changing the URL.

Tips

Tips for using the slug generator

Keep it to 3–5 words

Short slugs are easier to read, share and remember. "clean-cast-iron-pan" beats the full title.

Include the main keyword

The slug is a small relevance signal and shows in search results.

Never change live slugs casually

If you must, add a 301 redirect. Generate rules with the .htaccess redirect generator.

Avoid dates

Slugs without years let you update the post next year without changing the URL.

FAQ

Slug Generator FAQ

Should I remove stop words?

Often yes, for shorter slugs: "how-to-train-a-puppy" can become "train-puppy". Keep them if the slug reads oddly without them.

Hyphens or underscores?

Hyphens. Google treats hyphens as word separators but underscores as joining words.

What happens to accented letters?

They're converted to plain letters (é → e), which keeps URLs readable everywhere.

What is a URL slug?

The readable part of a URL that identifies a page, like /clean-cast-iron-pan.

Should slugs be lowercase?

Yes. URLs can be case-sensitive, and lowercase avoids duplicate addresses.

Can I convert many titles at once?

Yes, one per line.
