SEOslugmeta

Key takeaways

  • Slug first, then meta—keep the canonical URL identical in both tools.
  • Preview OG tags in staging; social crawlers cache aggressively.

Launch checklist

Generate slug from the H1, paste title/description into Meta Tag Generator with the production URL.

Add the URL to sitemap.xml before requesting indexing in Search Console.

FAQ

How long should slugs be?

Aim under 80 characters; drop stop words only when readability stays clear.

Do I need Twitter tags?
