Word count vs Effectiveness.

I agree with this statement. The headline should capture your audience attention then you immediately create interest from the get go. I believe that is where the effectiveness of your article and sales letter count (besides the benefits)

 

I tend to believe that the length of whatever it is you're writing should depend on how you feel about it yourself.

Having said that, I will admit that if I visit a product page and it seems to go on forever, I'll usually just leave. One can over-pack testimonials and benefits of purchasing something, and unless you're giving away a free tip, I don't need to scroll the equivalent of 10 pages to get the point.

 

Yup surely length of the content doesnt count and what matters is the worth of the content.

 

I am not really understand with this,I dont think length of writing will make difference,and I dont think searchengine do not look at what you write,I think they locate for cache duplications and keywords stuffing.the quantity of keywords density,in which I think cannot longer then %3 per titles

 

Word count is important, but is not really of the essence.. what matters most is that you come up with an accurate article. There are many techniques to make it that way, and it becomes sort of a mechanical thing. Mostly, any article "worth" publishing will naturally meet the market's standard 600 word goal.

 

Very interesting. So how do you suppose Clickbank vendors have 2k+ words on their sales pages and do 6-figure product launches? Clearly long sales pages convert well in many niches. That's a simple fact. I hate long sales letters because they look a bit less professional, but maybe that's just it. They hit the prospect at a personal level instead of looking "business-salesy."

 

I think some people are just conditioned to like long sales copy, but a majority of people just bypass them, like me most of the time. If I know within the first paragraph that I want the product, I'll stop reading and buy; if not, I'll just close it out.

So, it's probably about the numbers; those product launch people get together and send to their big time lists. They almost have to be successful.

 

I am tired of long sales pages! We all know that mostly, the tall claims are just false but still many people think long pages work. I'd go for short and to the point pages!

 

Well i really believe that the lenghth of the content is not so important and what matters is the quality of the content.
