    What happens if the title and the URL don't match? What impact will it have on our articles?

    I don't think that will ever happen. The url goes along with the title of every article. In fact, it seems that when you began to composed the title, AI composed the url at the same time.

    But unless this is being done manually, mistakes can cause the title and url not to match. What can subsequently happen that is hard to know in certain cases. Let tech savvy guys tell us.

    All your articles will spontaneously combust.

    Nothing can happen. And it matters not. Some of us change titles all the time. As long as the url aligns with the topic then it's fine.

    I have seen some articles where the writer has started an article, published it, then changed their mind and edited the article to be a completely different topic. That's not good.

    The URL can help with getting an article noticed if it contains the keywords or phrase that you're chasing. Ideally, those keywords match those in the title.

    Like Bev says, it's not a big deal if you change your title, but the keywords used should still be related to the URL.

    If you make the URL and title keywords unrelated, nothing drastic will necessarily happen, it's just not as good for getting noticed by the search engines.

    Everything to do with your article should back up the keyword(s) or phrase that you're chasing: URL, main title, subtitles, content...
