Why a good slug matters for SEO

The URL is one of the first elements Google analyzes and a human sees in SERPs. A clear, short slug containing the main keyword improves both ranking and CTR.

Short slugs share better on social media, are easier to remember and support better internal linking.

Rules for a perfect slug

  • All lowercase, no accents or special characters.
  • Use hyphens (-) as separators, never underscores or spaces.
  • 3 to 5 words max — ideally under 60 characters.
  • Include your main keyword at the start.
  • Avoid stop-words (the, for, with…) unless essential to meaning.

Frequently asked questions
