Hi Siva, are you asking if Google crawls more than 2000 words down into a page? I don’t believe that it stops crawling after 2000 words; many Wikipedia articles are fully indexed and are thousands of words longer! I hope that answered your question.

It matters in a very ‘at a glance’ society if your primary target is going to be reading on a mobile device (a young audience, for example). Their general reading time is much lower than on, say, a desktop or a laptop. So, if you know 80% of your readership is coming via a mobile, you’ll probably want to adjust the length of your article to suit.

An ideal length is around 1500 words. Just long enough to supply meaningful information, but not too long to switch people off. Better to have 2 blogs related to the same subject than one long daunting blog.

Informative post in need, this is one of the Detailed info about the length of blog post. I belive in long tail keyword as i pratically tested and it works fine, long tail keywords are golden. its brings huge traffic from search engines to web pages. I would say that, if you have juice of content with only 1000 words that is more than enough for my your readers , but to index more in google search in that case 2000 words count is taken in to account ? Also Neil patel blog says the same the Longer is usually better ?

Thanks,
Siva

You got your points right regarding content length, time and images factors.

However, there is one factor that was left untouched which can be considered one of the most important factor in sharing success.

In my honest opinion, no matter how best your content is, if it is not publicized well, it won’t reach your target audience. In order for it to capture people’s interest, the content got to reach them first. Right?

There are countless of fresh and thought-provoking content on the web, but not successful. Same goes with authors. We have seen and read amazing authors in the past, but unsuccessful until now.

I have until now battled with the issue of which of the divides I should adhere to. I usually write long blog posts, but a blogger wrote me to advise I should make it shorter. Your opinion is elaborate and plausible enough.

However, the way I see it is that the length of a blog should depend on the topic, what the blogger intends to achieve, and the best method to drive his/her point.

Thank you for a job well done.

Chibuoka

I couldn’t agree more on your confirming that 1,500 words is the ideal length of posts. No offence, but an over-4,000-word article would bore me to death regardless of its quality and insight.

There’s no need to exceed a milestone of word count. Just write what you know and your audience will gracefully thank you for that.

I do tend to write longer posts, so it’s probably gonna benefit me in the long run, but I never cared too much about post length. I easily read huge articles myself (and actually love them), so I expect my readers to be able to digest a 1000 words article without problems 😀

I understand your concern, Rahul. Sometimes you need to think about this.

What is Neil Patel’s target market?
What niche is he focusing?

As we can see, most of his blog posts are lengthy and takes longer to read and understand. However, the people whom are reading the blog posts are the ones hungry for greater techniques and strategies to improve their marketing efforts. If you’re going to learn something new and valuable, you will definitely spend hours in it.

Some technical posts published on top authority sites are extensively long as well. But it adds value and provide great help for the readers!

This just makes it much easier to read.

I have a question. I see Neil Patel writes extensive long & in-depth content. In my view, in this age of business, can any one has time to consume a post with more than 5000 words? It is quite lengthy.

Your opinion will be appreciated.

I was surprised at the 7 minutes reading time – I think, unless the content was really interesting, I would have given up before then.
When I write my posts I make sure the content is relevant and when I am done, that’s it. Finished. I have never really thought about word count. Perhaps now I should take a look at this. Thanks for sharing.
