Concept guide

What is a slug?

A slug is the readable part of a URL path that identifies a specific page. It usually turns a title, product name, or document name into a short URL segment made from words, numbers, and separators.

In /posts/what-is-url-slug, the what-is-url-slug part is the slug. Compared with an opaque numeric ID, a readable slug helps people understand what the page is about before opening or sharing it.

Non-Latin titles can be used directly in URLs, but they may become long percent-encoded strings in some environments. Public pages often use concise slugs that keep the important keywords and remove noisy punctuation.

Where is it used?

Slugs are common in blog posts, documentation pages, product pages, landing pages, and any content that needs a stable URL.

How should I write one?

Use lowercase words and numbers, separate words with hyphens, and shorten long titles to the keywords that matter.

What should I watch for?

Changing a published slug can break existing links, so plan redirects when you rename public URLs.

This tool cleans your text in the browser and creates a URL path candidate. If the title needs translation, use the AI Slug tool together with it.
