Learn best practices for structuring clean, search-friendly URLs that rank higher and increase click-through rates.
Google's official Webmaster Search Guidelines treat a hyphen (-) as a distinct word boundary separator, whereas an underscore (_) connects words into a single compound string.
- Hyphen URL:
example.com/web-dev-tools➔ Google indexes as 3 individual words: "web", "dev", "tools". - Underscore URL:
example.com/web_dev_tools➔ Google may index as a single entity: "web_dev_tools".
Stop words (such as a, an, the, and, in, on, at, for, of, with) add unnecessary character length to URLs without providing additional semantic value for search crawlers.
Stripping stop words produces shorter, punchier, and more memorable URLs that fit completely in mobile SERP snippets and social media sharing cards.
SEO research indicates that top-ranking pages typically feature permalinks between 35 to 60 characters (3 to 5 words). Overly long slugs:
- Get truncated with ellipses (...) in desktop and mobile SERPs.
- Dilute keyword relevance and core topic focus.
- Increase the likelihood of typos when typed or copied manually.
This tool's word-safe truncation ensures that words are never awkwardly cut in half when you set a character limit.
All transliterations, diacritic removals, regex cleaning, and file exports are executed 100% locally inside your browser's JavaScript engine. Zero user article titles, confidential page titles, draft URLs, or generated slugs are ever sent to any remote server or third-party tracking API.
