Frequently Asked Questions
What is a URL slug?
A URL slug is the human-readable part of a web address that identifies a page. For example, in example.com/blog/my-first-post, the slug is my-first-post.
How long should a slug be?
Keep slugs between 3-5 words for best SEO results. Short, descriptive slugs perform better in search rankings.
Should I use hyphens or underscores?
Use hyphens. Google treats hyphens as word separators but treats underscores as word joiners. So my-post is read as two words while my_post is read as one.
