Frequently asked questions
What is a permalink and why does it matter for SEO?
A permalink (permanent link) is the full URL used to access a specific page on your website. Clean, descriptive permalinks help search engines understand your content and can improve click-through rates from search results.
Should I use hyphens or underscores in URLs?
Google recommends using hyphens (-) instead of underscores (_) in URLs. Hyphens are treated as word separators, while underscores are not. This makes hyphens better for SEO and readability.
What are stop words and should I remove them?
Stop words are common words like 'the', 'and', 'in', 'of' that don't add much meaning to a URL. Removing them can create cleaner, shorter URLs. However, keep them if removing them makes the URL confusing or changes the meaning.
How long should a URL be?
Aim to keep URLs under 60 characters when possible. While there's no hard limit, shorter URLs are easier to share, remember, and display in search results. Very long URLs may be truncated in SERPs.
