What exactly is a URL slug and why is it important for SEO?

A URL slug is the descriptive, readable part of a web address that comes after your domain name. For example, in 'yoursite.com/blog-post-title', the slug is 'blog-post-title'. SEO-friendly slugs help search engines understand your page content, improve click-through rates from search results, and provide users with clear expectations about your page content.

Can this tool handle multiple languages and special characters?

Yes, our slug generator supports international content by normalizing Unicode characters and removing accents/diacritics. This ensures your slugs work correctly across different browsers, servers, and international domains while maintaining readability for English-speaking audiences.

What's the difference between single mode and batch processing?

Single mode generates one slug at a time with real-time preview as you type, perfect for creating individual URLs. Batch mode processes multiple lines of text simultaneously, ideal for content creators working with multiple titles, product catalogs, or bulk content migration projects.

How does the batch processing feature work and what statistics does it provide?

Batch mode processes each line of text as a separate slug, providing detailed analytics including total generated count, average length, unique slug count, and duplicate detection. This helps content managers identify patterns and ensure URL uniqueness across large content sets.

What separator options are available and which should I choose for best SEO results?

You can choose between hyphens (-), underscores (_), or no separator. For SEO best practices, hyphens are recommended as Google treats them as word separators, making your content more discoverable. Underscores connect words and are less effective for SEO, while no separator creates longer, harder-to-read URLs.

Is there a length limit for slugs and what happens if my text is too long?

While technically URLs can be much longer, our tool allows you to set a maximum length (up to 255 characters) with automatic truncation. For optimal SEO and user experience, we recommend keeping slugs under 50-60 characters to ensure they display properly in search results and social media shares.
