Here are some general guidelines for blog post length based on topic:
- Technology/Gadgets: 500-800 words
- Personal/Lifestyle: 300-500 words
- News/Current Events: 300-500 words
- How-to/Tutorials: 800-1,200 words
- In-depth Guides: 1,200-2,000 words
The ideal length depends on your content, but most bloggers recommend keeping posts between 300-800 words for readability. Longer is okay for very in-depth topics. The key is to provide enough detail without losing your readers. Consider breaking up especially long posts into a series.
