Free URL Length Checker: Optimize Slugs for SEO & Click-Through Rates

Optimize your routing paths for semantic clarity and click-through velocity—at no cost.

In Otimização do Motor Generativo (GEO) , your URL structure acts as the filing system for your content. Large Language Models (LLMs) and search crawlers read your URL path to understand site hierarchy before they even process the page body. A bloated, truncated URL is a missed opportunity to signal relevance.

The MultiLipi URL Length Checker is a free engineering utility that audits your permalinks against the strict character limits of modern search engines, ensuring your keywords remain visible and your paths remain parseable.

The Truncation Constraint

Why 60 characters is the hard limit.

Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs) have finite pixel width.

The Rule

Google typically displays the first 50-60 characters of a URL.

The Risk

If your URL is yoursite.com/blog/articles/2025/category/why-infrastructure-is-critical-for-growth, it gets truncated to .../why-infras...

The user (and the AI) loses the context.

The Fix

Our tool validates your slug length instantly, guiding you toward concise paths like yoursite.com/blog/infrastructure-growth that preserve semantic value.

O Protocolo de Auditoria

Examine Character Count, Status Indicator, and Recommendations.

Lógica da Análise:

Character Count: Instant read of total length

Status Indicator: Green (Optimized), Yellow (Caution), or Red (Critical Truncation)

Recommendation: Specific advice on how many characters to trim

Optimizing for AI Parsing

Clean data feeds clean models.

LLMs prefer "Entity-Based" URLs.

Bad URL

yoursite.com/p=123&cat=99

The AI sees nothing but parameters.

Good URL

yoursite.com/tools/url-checker

The AI sees "Tools" and "URL Checker".

Using this tool ensures you strip away unnecessary parameters and stop words, leaving only the high-value keywords that feed the Knowledge Graph.

The "German Problem" (Multilingual Impact)

Why length matters for localization.

When you translate a URL slug, it often expands. English is concise; languages like German or French are verbose.

Inglês

/about-us (9 chars)

Alemão

/ueber-unsere-unternehmen (24 chars)

If your English URL is already 55 characters, your German version will break the limit. Use this tool to audit your Translated Slugs and ensure your global navigation remains compact and user-friendly.
