Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a slug?

A slug is a human-readable identifier string used as part of a URL. For example, a title like "Hello, World! 2024" becomes "hello-world-2024", using only lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens. Using slugs in article or product URLs makes the content easy to understand and is helpful for SEO.

Can I turn a Japanese title into a slug?

By default this tool builds slugs from Latin letters and digits. When "Keep non-Latin characters" is off, Japanese, Chinese, and similar characters are removed instead of being kept, leaving only the alphanumeric parts. When it is on you can include Japanese as-is, but note that such characters are percent-encoded in URLs.

Is the text I enter sent to a server?

No. Slug generation happens entirely in JavaScript inside your browser. The text you enter is never sent to or stored on a server, so you can safely convert text that contains sensitive information.
