  1. Paste your titles, one per line.
  2. Review the clean slugs made from them.
  3. Copy the slugs to use in your page addresses.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a URL slug be?

Keep it short, typically three to five meaningful words. Drop filler words such as the or and, and use hyphens rather than underscores to separate words.

What does a slug do to special characters?

It removes or simplifies punctuation and symbols, turns spaces into hyphens and lowercases letters. This keeps the address clean and safe to use in a web link.
