What Makes a Good Slug?
A URL slug is the part of a URL that identifies a specific page in a human-readable way. Good slugs are short, descriptive, use only lowercase letters and hyphens, and avoid special characters. They improve SEO by including relevant keywords and make URLs easier to share and remember.
Best practices: keep slugs under 60 characters, use hyphens (not underscores) as word separators, remove articles (a, an, the), and ensure uniqueness across your site.
