Slugify Tool
Transform headlines, titles, and filenames into clean, URL-safe permalinks with custom delimiters and accent normalization.
What makes a good URL slug?
A slug is the human-readable part of a URL that identifies a specific page on a website (e.g. /blog/my-first-post). Good slugs improve SEO search rankings, click-through rates, and shareability:
- Hyphens over underscores: Search engines like Google treat hyphens as word separators, whereas underscores may connect words together.
- Accent normalization: International diacritics like
éorüare normalized toeanduto avoid ugly percent-encoding (%C3%A9). - Stop word removal: Optionally strip filler words ("a", "the", "and") for concise, punchy permalinks.

Does it trim trailing hyphens if max length is reached?
