Frequently Asked Questions

What is a slug?

A slug is a URL-friendly version of text where spaces are replaced with separators, special characters are removed, and accented characters are transliterated. For example, 'Hello World!' becomes 'hello-world'.

What separator options are available?

You can choose between hyphen (-), underscore (_), or dot (.) as the separator between words in your slug. Hyphen is the most common choice for URL slugs.

Does it support Unicode transliteration?

Yes. The tool automatically transliterates accented Latin characters (like é, ü, ñ) and Cyrillic characters to their ASCII equivalents, making the resulting slug URL-safe.

What is stop word removal?

When enabled, common English stop words like 'a', 'an', 'the', 'is', and 'are' are removed from the slug. This creates shorter, cleaner URLs. For example, 'the quick brown fox' becomes 'quick-brown-fox' instead of 'the-quick-brown-fox'.

Can I control the slug length?

Yes. You can set a maximum length for the generated slug. The tool will truncate the slug at a word boundary to keep it clean and readable.
