What's the issue

FastaSEO found numbers in your URL slug. This often happens when a page is duplicated and gets a number added automatically, or when a booking or scheduling tool generates a page with an ID in the URL. Numbers give search engines no information about the page topic and can make URLs look auto-generated or untrustworthy.

Why it matters

• Numbers in URLs are a common sign of auto-generated or unoptimised pages. They make the URL harder to read, give search engines no useful information about the page, and can look untrustworthy to visitors. A clean, word-only URL is easier to share, easier to remember, and gives Google and AI bots a much clearer signal about what the page covers.

What good looks like

A URL made up of descriptive words only, with no numbers. For example: /portfolio or /brand-photography-services. Not: /portfolio-2, /services-287687, or /page-123.

How long this takes

Renaming a page takes less than a minute.
