# SEO tab: URL slug, search listing & social share image

> The SEO tab controls how your course looks in Google and on social — the URL it lives at, the title/description in search results, and the image that shows when someone shares the link.

## URL (slug)

The course's address: /learn/<slug>. Edit the slug, or use the magic-wand button to regenerate it from the title. Keep it short and readable — it's part of the link people share.

## Search engine listing

- Meta title — what shows as the blue link in Google. It truncates around 60 characters, so keep the keyword first.
- Meta description — the gray snippet under the title; truncates around 160 characters.
- Keywords — comma-separated phrases (e.g. 'SAT math, algebra, practice tests').
- A live Google preview shows the domain, title, and description as a searcher would see them. 'Reset to course defaults' refills from the course.

## Social share image

The image that appears when the course link is shared (WhatsApp, X, LinkedIn). Upload one (recommended 1200×630, under 1 MB, keep text in the center 60%), 'Generate' one, or 'Use course cover'. If you leave it empty, we fall back to the course cover, and auto-generate one on publish if there's no cover either.

> **Note:** Social share image is 1200×630 (different from the 1280×720 cover) — that's the ratio link previews use, so text near the edges can get cropped.
