Why clean URL slugs matter for SEO
A URL slug is the part of a web address that identifies a specific page — for example /how-to-build-a-startup-in-2024. Search engines read slugs to understand page content, and well-formed slugs can meaningfully improve click-through rates in search results.
This tool handles every edge case: accented characters, special symbols, mixed cases, multiple spaces, numbers, stop words — so you can process an entire content calendar in seconds instead of manually editing each URL.
Should I remove stop words from slugs?
It depends. Removing words like "the", "a", "and" makes slugs shorter and more keyword-dense. But sometimes they're needed for readability. Toggle the option and compare — the preview updates instantly.
What's the ideal slug length?
Google typically displays ~70 characters in search result URLs. Keeping slugs under 60 characters ensures nothing gets truncated and the keyword signals stay concentrated.
Why use hyphens, not underscores?
Google treats hyphens as word separators (like spaces) but underscores join words into one token. "seo-tools" is three keywords; "seo_tools" is one. Hyphens are the strong default for SEO.
Why do accented characters get converted?
Characters like é, ñ, ü get percent-encoded in URLs (%C3%A9), which looks broken in shared links. Transliteration converts them to plain ASCII equivalents automatically.
