What you’ll accomplish

Customize your page URLs to look professional and improve SEO by removing auto-generated numbers and creating clean, memorable links. Time required: 2-3 minutes per page

​
Understanding URL slugs

The slug is the part of your website URL that comes after your domain:
  • Your domain: yourcoachingsite.com
  • Page slug: /about
  • Full URL: yourcoachingsite.com/about

​
Why clean URLs matter for coaches

  • Professional credibility: coachsmith.com/basketball-training looks more trustworthy than coachsmith.com/page-1755106901008
  • Easy sharing: Parents can easily remember and share yoursite.com/camps with other parents
  • Better SEO: Search engines prefer descriptive URLs with relevant keywords

​

  • Include keywords when relevant: youth-basketball-camps
Pro tip: Match your slug to your page title for consistency and better SEO.

​
Removing auto-generated numbers

Why numbers appear: When you create pages with similar names, CoachIQ adds numbers to prevent URL conflicts. How to clean them up:
  1. Replace about-1755106901008 with simply about
  2. Change training-programs-2 to training-programs
  3. Update contact-3 to contact
Important: Don’t use a slug that’s already taken by another page. CoachIQ will show an error if there’s a conflict.

​
Best practices

Keep URLs short: Aim for 2-4 words maximum for better user experience and sharing.
Use keywords: Include relevant coaching terms that your clients might search for.
Stay consistent: Use the same format across all pages (all lowercase, hyphens for spaces).
