FAQ
What makes a good URL slug?
A good slug is short, lowercase, uses hyphens to separate words, and contains only alphanumeric characters and hyphens. Avoid stop words like 'the', 'a', 'of' for brevity. Example: 'how-to-bake-bread' not 'how-to-bake-a-loaf-of-bread'.
Should slugs include stop words?
For SEO, shorter slugs often perform better. Removing stop words ('the', 'a', 'an', 'of') makes slugs cleaner. However, keep them if removal changes the meaning.
How are accented characters handled?
By default, accented characters are transliterated to their ASCII equivalents (ñ → n, ü → u). This ensures slugs work in all browsers and servers.
