About The Advanced Slug Converter
A "slug" is the part of a URL that identifies a page in a
human-readable format. For example, in the URL
example.com/blog/my-first-post
, the slug is
my-first-post
. Clean slugs are crucial for Search
Engine Optimization (SEO) and user experience. This tool
transforms any text into a perfect slug with advanced features
tailored for professionals.
Key Features:
- SEO-Friendly URLs: Creates clean, readable slugs that are preferred by search engines like Google.
- Advanced Transliteration: Automatically converts international characters like `é` or `ü` into their basic ASCII equivalents (`e`, `u`).
- Stop Word Removal: An option to automatically strip out common words (e.g., "a", "the", "in") to create shorter, more impactful slugs.
- Max Length Control: Limit the slug to a specific character count, intelligently trimming at the last whole word.
-
Custom Separators: While hyphens
(
-
) are standard, you can use underscores (_
) or any other character. - Case Control: Force the slug to lowercase (standard practice) or preserve the original case if needed.

- Customize the options in the panel below: set a separator, max length, or choose to remove stop words.
