Optimal Article Length

Copyright © Dolores Davis


When choosing an article for your website, make sure that it is
a length that is optimal for search engine optimization efforts.
Articles that are as short as 200 words or as long as 500 words
should fit into this category.

Even if search engine optimization is not your goal, it is still
a good idea to keep your articles at this length for your reader’s
sake. They are likely to not finish your page if it is any longer.
This could leave them with only half of the information you wanted
them to have or leave them with the impression that your site is
too “wordy”.

Most Internet readers do not read a website page as they would a book,
so the shorter the better. Even if this means splitting one long
idea into 4 or 5 pages. Be sure to label them so that the reader
can pick and choose which part they want to read or so they know
what is coming up next to help them determine if they want to
continue reading.



(Feel free to use this article online and in your email
newsletters as long as you leave it intact and do not
alter it in anyway. The by-line and biography must
remain in the article.)
