Frequently asked questions
- Why use hyphens instead of underscores in URLs?
- Search engines treat hyphens as word separators, so hyphenated slugs are generally better for SEO. Underscores are still supported if you prefer them.
- What does the slug generator remove?
- Spaces and punctuation are replaced with your chosen separator and accents are simplified, leaving clean, URL-safe letters, numbers and separators.
- Can I choose the separator and case?
- Yes. You can switch between hyphen and underscore separators and choose whether the slug is lowercased.
