About URL Slugs

A URL slug is the part of a URL that identifies a page in a human-readable format. Slugs are commonly used for:

  • Blog post URLs (e.g., /blog/my-awesome-post)
  • Product pages (e.g., /products/blue-cotton-shirt)
  • SEO-friendly URLs
  • Clean, readable web addresses

Tip: Slugs automatically convert to lowercase, replace spaces with hyphens, and remove special characters.
