Blog & Content Writing Services – Ghost Blog Writers

A quality blog post is one that answers a question with the best information and in the best way possible. Depending on the question, the appropriate word count could range from a few hundred words to a few thousand words.

Word count can also vary depending on your industry and what your goals are for your business blog.

This is a sweet spot for both social media sharing and SEO. There are many other factors, but word count is important. According to one small study, posts with 1,500+ words received 68% more tweets and 22% more Facebook likes (QuickSprout).

Additionally, Wikipedia, one of the most successful sites for both SEO and social sharing, articles average ~1,200 words (WikiCount).

Another study found that the average Google first page result contains 1,890 words. (Backlinko)
