I like to write both short and long posts. Everything depends on the topic you’re writing about.
Long posts demands our time but are good for SEO. On the other hand, short posts are easy to write but you can’t stand out of the crowd only with short posts.
Bro I think you can stand out of the crowd with short posts also.
i Think A medium Post will be Perfect Which will be neither too long Nor too short.A Post length Must Be from 400 words to 1500 words.This is the perfect length for a Post.Btw Nice article and awesome points raised here (y)
Yup! Medium is perfect post, but i think you can’t explain the topic deeply in medium length post.
Thanks for the comment BRO.
Good description Aditya.
I’ve written many posts with length ranging from 600 to 5000 words, and now i feel that the best length is 800 to 1000 words, because it’s good for SEO as well as it’s sufficient for explaining most of the topics.
Sometimes 1000 words are less for explaining the topic. Post length depends on you. How much long you want to make.
