Why Use This Tool?
What makes a good URL slug?
A good slug is short, lowercase, uses hyphens (not underscores or spaces) to separate words, and ideally includes your target keyword. Search engines and readers can both parse a clean URL like /best-tomato-growing-tips far more easily than a long, character-heavy default URL generated automatically by many content management systems.
Why hyphens instead of underscores?
Google explicitly treats hyphens as word separators in URLs but does not reliably treat underscores the same way, meaning "best-tomato-tips" is read as three separate words while "best_tomato_tips" may be read as one long string. Hyphens are the accepted SEO best practice.
Does this tool handle special characters and accents?
Yes — punctuation, symbols and non-alphanumeric characters are stripped automatically, extra spaces are collapsed into single hyphens, and everything is converted to lowercase, giving you a clean, valid slug every time.
Is this tool free and private?
Completely. The slug is generated instantly in your browser with plain JavaScript — nothing is uploaded or stored, and there's no signup required.
