Blog tip 4:
Use URL that can be easily remembered

You can post slug to make your blog posts unique and easy to remember to the readers. You might have wondered what slug is! Let me explain it…

Post slug usually is a shorthand version of the post's title with certain characters escaped or dropped. It's applied to the URL of individual posts. Post slug helps to locate your blog posts easily and avoid conflicts among similar posts as well.

Some points regarding Slug postings that to be remembered:

  • The Post Slug is located in the right navigation panel of Word Press. If it is not appearing there, you can click on the + sign to open it. To change your Post Slug, you can simply type in the new title or URL with dashes in between each word, no spaces. Example: example.com/2006/6/5/wise-men-think-alike



  • The Post Slug does not have to be the title. You can change it to “wise-men-think-different” or whatever you want.
  • It only appears after you have press the Publish button, so you will have to edit the post after its been published.

If you have any further query please feel free to ask me.
