Using Nested URL Paths for Pages and Steps
Nested paths let you organize page addresses into folders, such as /resources/guides/sales-checklist. They give visitors clearer links and search engines a clearer structure. This applies to funnels, websites, stores and webinars, and is currently in beta.
Create a Nested Path
- Open the page or funnel step and click Edit.
- In the path field, type your address using
/between segments, for example/webinars/2026/spring-session. - Save.
Slashes are now preserved. Previously they were turned into hyphens, creating a flat address.
Rules and Limits
- Maximum depth is five levels. Each segment between slashes counts, and the domain does not. A deeper path is blocked with a "too deep" message.
- Some words are reserved and cannot be used as paths:
/b/,/c/,/product/,/collections/,/post/,/category/,/author/,/tag/and/store/account. - Use lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens. Avoid spaces and capitals.
- No trailing slash, double slashes or empty segments. Write
/blog/seo-tips, not/blog//seo-tips/.
Good Habits
Make paths descriptive and mirror how the site is organized, such as /blog/seo-tips rather than /b/123. You can mix flat pages like /about with nested ones in the same site. Sitemaps reflect the nested addresses so search engines can discover them.
Changing a Live Path
Changing an address that is already published breaks existing links. Create a 301 redirect from the old path under Sites > URL Redirects so visitors and search rankings carry over.
Good to know: Plan your folder structure before publishing, since fixing paths later always needs redirects.
