How long should a blog post be
How long should a blog post be, is always the question bloggers ask and various bloggers have different advice. This infographic it tells us that posts that have between 3000 and 10000 words are the highest ranking posts on Google these posts also get the most backlinks, while this might be true, I’d be surprised in our fast paced life that people would have the time on the inclination to read a post that is that long. General opinion has always been that posts that are short and sweet, to the point, detailed and useful should be around 300-1200 words for SEO purposes. So you have a choice, write smaller posts more often, or longer post less often – unless you can write book length blogs posts, that can keep the readers attention at least once a week. Just bare in mind that the minimum for a blog post should be 300 words as thats what is said that search engines like, something to at least get their teeth into. Although Hubspot’s answer to “how long should your blog post be” is that it doesn’t matter as long as you are blogging and enjoying it.
