Frequently Asked Questions
Why are hyphen-separated slugs recommended for SEO?
Major search engines like Google treat hyphens (-) as word separators, whereas underscores (_) may be interpreted as joining characters into a single combined word.
What are Stop Words and should I remove them?
Stop words are high-frequency connector words (such as 'the', 'a', 'in', 'of'). Removing them yields shorter, more readable, and keyword-focused URL slugs.
Does the tool handle accented characters (diacritics)?
Yes, international accented characters (e.g. é, ö, ñ, ç, ü) are automatically transliterated into clean standard ASCII equivalents (e, o, n, c, u).
Are numbers allowed in generated slugs?
Yes, numbers are kept by default, but you can toggle 'Remove Numbers' if you prefer pure alphabetic slugs.
Is this tool free and private?
Yes, all slug normalization runs 100% locally in your browser with complete privacy.
Can I generate uppercase slugs?
Yes, choose 'UPPERCASE' from the Casing dropdown if required by your specific system.
