Removes common words like 'a', 'the', 'in' from post slugs to improve search engine optimization.

SlugsSEO Slugs -http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/seo-slugs/

Example:

"What You Can Do Immediately For Higher Rankings"

Wordpress slug - /what-you-can-do-immediately-for-higher-rankingsSEO Slugs slug - /immediately-higher-rankings

The slug is generated on saving a post (so you get a chance to look at it beforepublishing, and change it), or on publish. It won't overwrite an existing slug butyou can force a new slug generation by deleting the existing one.
