A slug is the readable part of a URL that usually appears after the domain name. Good slugs are short, descriptive, and easy for both humans and systems to work with.
What makes a slug good
Clear slugs use lowercase letters, hyphens between words, and only the terms needed to explain the page. They avoid long filler phrases and unstable identifiers when not required.
Why this matters
Readable URLs look more trustworthy, are easier to copy into notes or chats, and make internal content management simpler.
Best practice
Generate the base slug automatically, then review it manually before publishing if the page is important.
