Slug contains consecutive hyphens
The tool should collapse multiple hyphens into one. If not, remove special characters from the source title before generating.
Slug starts or ends with a hyphen
Leading and trailing hyphens are trimmed automatically. If they persist, check for leading/trailing spaces in the input.
Expert FAQ
Why should I use hyphens instead of underscores?
Google treats hyphens as word separators and underscores as word joiners. Use hyphens for SEO-friendly URLs.
What characters are removed?
All characters that are not alphanumeric or hyphens are removed. Accented characters (é, ñ, ü) are transliterated to ASCII equivalents.
Should I include stop words in the slug?
Short, descriptive slugs are preferred. Removing stop words (the, is, of) makes slugs shorter and cleaner without losing keyword value.
