So instead of focusing on word count, focus on meeting users’ needs. Write interesting content that’s relevant to what they’re searching for. Portray your brand’s personality and make sure your content is creative, informative, and well-structured. These elements will keep readers engaged and naturally drive more backlinks and SEO value.
