Gerador de Slug de URL
Convert text to clean URL-friendly slugs with custom separators and options.
Sobre esta ferramenta
A slug is the human-readable part of a URL - the "how-to-convert-pdf-to-word" in a blog address. Getting it right involves a few rules that are easy to state and easy to forget. Use hyphens, not underscores: Google treats a hyphen as a word separator and an underscore as a joiner, so "pdf_to_word" reads as one token rather than three. Lowercase everything, because URLs are case-sensitive on most servers and mixed casing creates duplicate URLs for the same page. Strip accents and punctuation, since anything outside the safe character set gets percent-encoded into an unreadable mess. Keep it short and drop filler words - "the", "a", "and" add length without adding meaning. The most important rule is not about formatting at all: once a URL is published and indexed, changing it breaks every existing link unless you add a redirect. Decide the slug before publishing. This runs in your browser.

Dicas para melhores resultados
- Always hyphens, never underscores. Search engines split on hyphens and join on underscores, which changes how the words are read.
- Keep it to three to five meaningful words. Long slugs get truncated in search results and are awkward to share.
- Drop stop words - the, a, and, of - unless removing them makes the slug ambiguous.
- Never change a published slug without a 301 redirect from the old URL. That is how sites lose accumulated rankings.
- Avoid dates and numbers unless they are genuinely permanent. "2024-guide" ages badly and invites an unnecessary URL change.
Erros a evitar
- Using underscores, which search engines treat as joining words rather than separating them.
- Leaving uppercase letters, which creates case-sensitive duplicate URLs on most servers.
- Changing a live slug without a redirect, breaking every existing link and losing the page's ranking history.
- Stuffing keywords into a long slug, which looks spammy and gets truncated anyway.
- Leaving accented or special characters in, which get percent-encoded into an unreadable URL.
Perguntas frequentes
Short, descriptive, lowercase, hyphen-separated, and ideally containing the target keyword - avoiding unnecessary filler words keeps it clean and readable both for users and search engines.
Spaces are typically converted to hyphens, and special characters/punctuation are stripped or transliterated, since URLs need to stick to a limited safe character set.
Yes - accented characters are transliterated to their closest plain ASCII equivalent, so "é" becomes "e". Left in place they would be percent-encoded into an unreadable string in the address bar.
Hyphens, always. Google treats a hyphen as a word separator and an underscore as a joiner, so "pdf-to-word" reads as three words while "pdf_to_word" reads as one. This is a documented difference, not a style preference.
Three to five meaningful words. Long slugs are truncated in search results, awkward to share and no more effective - dropping filler words like "the" and "and" usually gets you there.
You can, but only with a 301 redirect from the old URL. Without one, every existing link breaks and the page loses its accumulated ranking signals. This is why the slug is worth deciding before you publish.
