Sweet spot for content word count ? Does it have to be over 1500 words ?

To be honest some of my most quality content is 1000 to 1200 words. Anything over 1500 is simply going crap and becoming an essay. I also found that people usually don't read articles over 1500 words unless we are finding answers for a topic specifically, myself included.

Is it possible to rank and do well with < 1500 words ? For every 2000 word article, I have 12 articles less than 1500. But it doesn't mean these articles are weak, I find them to be the exact amount of information required to be quality content enough that gets the message across. Not everything has to be an in-depth tutorial or review which simply doesn't make sense. Half the internet is there for casual browsing anyways.

But the real question is, would there be technical SEO setbacks for writing less ? Adding more words to hit SEO will just produce nonsense if it doesn't suit the topic.

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
