Questions and answers

What is a slug?

The readable end of a web address, such as calm-guide-to-houseplants. Letters, numbers and hyphens only.

Why use dashes, not spaces?

Spaces in web addresses turn into "%20". Dashes are easy to read and search engines treat them as gaps between words.

What happens to accents?

Letters such as é and ü become plain e and u, so the address works everywhere.
