What is a URL slug?

A URL slug is the part of a web address that comes after the domain name and identifies a specific page in a human-readable way. For example, in gettrack.link/r/my-awesome-post, the slug is my-awesome-post.

Well-crafted slugs improve SEO by giving search engines clear signals about page content. They also make URLs more readable and shareable — people are more likely to click a link they can understand at a glance.

URL Slug Best Practices

Keep slugs short (3-5 words)

Shorter slugs are easier to read, share, and remember. They also perform better in search results.

Use hyphens, not underscores

Google treats hyphens as word separators but treats underscores as word joiners. Always prefer hyphens for SEO.

Include your target keyword

Place your primary keyword in the slug to signal relevance to search engines and users.

Avoid stop words

Remove words like "the", "a", "an", "of", "in", and "to" — they add length without adding value.

Use lowercase only

URLs are case-sensitive on most servers. Stick to lowercase to avoid duplicate content issues and broken links.
