About this tool
A slug is the part of a URL that identifies a page, such as /blog/how-to-compress-images. Clean slugs are easier to read, share and remember, and they give search engines a quick hint about the page topic.
Google recommends using hyphens rather than underscores to separate words in URLs. This tool lowercases text, strips accents (café becomes cafe), replaces "&" with "and", removes punctuation and collapses repeated separators. Use the stop-word option to make long titles shorter.
Frequently asked questions
Should I use hyphens or underscores in a URL?
Use hyphens. Google treats hyphens as word separators, while underscores can join words together.
How long should a URL slug be?
Keep it short and descriptive, ideally under 60 characters, with your main keyword near the start.
Should I change a slug after the page is published?
Avoid it. If you must, add a 301 redirect from the old URL to the new one.
