What is a URL Slug?

A URL slug is the part of a URL that comes after the domain name. It identifies a specific page in a human-readable way. Good slugs are short, descriptive, and contain relevant keywords.

Best Practices

  • Keep slugs short and descriptive (under 75 characters)
  • Use hyphens to separate words (not underscores)
  • Include your primary keyword in the slug
  • Remove stop words (a, the, and, of, etc.)
  • Use lowercase letters only
  • Avoid special characters and numbers unless relevant

FAQ

Why are slugs important for SEO?

URL slugs help search engines and users understand what a page is about before clicking. A clear, keyword-rich slug can improve click-through rates from search results.

Should I change slugs of existing pages?

Be cautious. Changing slugs creates new URLs. Set up 301 redirects from old URLs to avoid broken links and lost SEO value.
