What length should an SEO text be

SEO experts have already written extensively about how long an SEO article should be. Since no one but Google really knows how their search algorithm works, this necessarily involves some assumptions. These are based on what works and what doesn't, and that changes over time. It used to be thought that shorter blogs were better - 350 to 400 words - but that's no longer the case. Google values authoritative content, so the most indexed articles are usually at least 600 words long.

 

But the most important recommendation is to make the article relevant to your chosen topic. There's no point in trying to stretch an article to 800 words that could be better covered in 400. Most blogs publish a variety of content, with 700 to 800 word blogs and longer blogs ranging from 1,000 to 1,500 words.

 

Shorter blogs are also acceptable as part of balanced content, as not everyone will have the time or desire to scroll through a long blog article, especially in some sectors. But don't rely on short articles to achieve high rankings in Google. You need to demonstrate your industry knowledge to do so.
