URL Slug Reference

What is a URL Slug?

A URL slug is the human-readable part of a URL that identifies a specific page. For example, in example.com/blog/how-to-make-pizza, the slug is how-to-make-pizza. Good slugs are short, descriptive, and contain the page's target keyword.

Hyphens vs Underscores

Google officially recommends hyphens (-) as word separators in URLs. Google treats hyphens as word separators but treats underscores as word joiners โ€” meaning my_page is read as "mypage" while my-page is read as "my page". Always use hyphens for SEO.

Stop Words

Stop words are common words like "a", "an", "the", "is", "of", "and" that add length but little meaning to a URL. Removing them keeps slugs concise and keyword-focused. For example: "The Best Tips for SEO" โ†’ best-tips-seo.

Slug Length

There's no hard character limit for URL slugs, but shorter is better. Aim for 3โ€“5 meaningful words. Studies show that shorter URLs tend to rank higher and get more clicks. Google truncates long URLs in SERPs, so keep the most important keywords at the start.
