Slug tips
Shorter slugs are easier to share. Remove filler words like "the", "a", and "and" when the meaning stays clear.
Once published, avoid changing slugs without setting up 301 redirects — broken links lose ranking signals.
Pro tips
- Include one primary keyword when it fits naturally.
- Avoid special characters, underscores, and uppercase letters.
