What is the benefit of creating good URLs (using slug), instead of unique id like youtube? – SEO

MY Question without code so pls bear with me 🙂

Now in Laravel, you use for links of our app the slug to arrange the links of app. and youtube uses some letters and numbers I don’t know what it is for a video! like i0b2ejl7tXM

So what the difference in SEO if we use the unique code like youtube and we use the slug which is the name of the post?

    From what I’ve taken from this article and from my experience, of course it has a difference. The difference, a good URL will increase your post ranks in search engine. But, please keep in mind that SEO isn’t just it. Please take a look at this good diagram.

    You can use a function to generate and decode strings for your routes.

    Routes:

    Route::get(/'{code}', 'YourController@yourMethod');

    Controller:

    public function yourMethod(Request $request, $code)
    {
        $decodedValue = decodingFunction($code)
        ...
    }
