How to use Slug Generator

A slug is the short, readable part of a URL. It helps visitors understand the page at a glance and gives search engines clear signals about your content. Start by pasting your title or phrase into the tool. If your headline is long, the generator can remove stopwords like “the,” “and,” or “of” to keep the slug focused. Hyphens are the most common separators because they’re easy to read and search‑engine friendly. You can also choose underscores if your platform requires them. Next, set a maximum length. Shorter slugs are easier to scan, fit better in search results, and are less likely to be truncated when shared. When you generate the slug, check that it still captures the main idea of the title. If it looks too short, increase the length or keep key words by turning off stopword removal. Use the final slug in your CMS, landing page builder, or product URL field. Consistent slugs improve both SEO and user trust.

Quick steps

  5. Generate and copy the slug for your page, post, or product.
