Frequently asked questions
What is a slug?
It's the final part of a URL that identifies a specific page, usually derived from the title — for example, in 'yoursite.com/blog/how-to-make-a-slug', 'how-to-make-a-slug' is the slug.
Why use a hyphen instead of an underscore (_) in a slug?
Google treats a hyphen as a word separator, but an underscore as a character that joins words together — 'how-to' reads as two words, while 'how_to' can read as one. That's why a hyphen is the recommended convention for SEO.
Why remove accents in the slug?
Accented characters in a URL get turned into unreadable percent-encoded codes when the URL is copied or shared, like '%C3%A7'. Removing the accent avoids this and keeps the link clean.
