Snippet: How Long Should Your Blog Post Be?

While most people will say it depends on many things, (and it does depend), the exact blog post length takes into consideration the industry you’re in, your domain authority and topical authority, the topics you’re writing about, and the quality and relevance of the posts.

For Christian authors and all things remaining constant, writing longer content gives you more meat for search engines to index on. Especially if you’re fighting uphill against most authoritative websites, one weapon you have at your disposal is writing more thorough content. In SEO (a topic needing further conversation), your job is to make the best page on the internet for your topic. Ito achieve this, you need great content that is thorough, detailed and comprehensive. This usually means long content.

Over the years, the length of content has moved from an average of 800/1,200 words to 1,500/2,000 words. If you can challenge yourself to 2,500 words, the better.

Summary:
Blog length – Minimum 1,500 and Maximum 2,500
