Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a good SEO URL slug?
A good slug is short (under 60 characters), contains the primary keyword, uses hyphens to separate words, is all lowercase, and avoids stop words like 'the', 'a', 'is', and 'of' that add length without SEO value.
Should I remove stop words from slugs?
Removing stop words from slugs is a common SEO practice to keep URLs concise and keyword-focused. However, for very short titles where removing stops words creates a confusing URL, it's fine to keep them.
Does the URL slug affect SEO rankings?
URL slugs are a minor on-page ranking factor. Including your target keyword in the slug is a good practice, but it has far less impact than the page title, content, and backlinks.
