What makes a good URL slug?
A slug is the readable part of a URL after the domain — for example /best-seo-tips. Search engines and people both use it as a clue about what a page contains, so short, descriptive, keyword-rich slugs are a small but genuine SEO win.
Best practices
- Keep it short and descriptive — include your main keyword, drop filler words.
- Use lowercase letters and hyphens (Google treats hyphens as word separators).
- Avoid dates, IDs and random parameters where you can.
- Don't change slugs on live pages without setting up a 301 redirect.
Hyphens or underscores?
Hyphens. Google treats hyphens as spaces between words but reads underscores as joiners, so seo-tips is understood as two words while seo_tips can be read as one.
Should I remove stop words from slugs?
Often yes — shorter slugs are cleaner and still readable. But keep a stop word if removing it changes the meaning. This tool makes it optional so you can choose.
