How many blog posts per page are enough?
-
Any thoughts on how many blog posts per page are enough for SEO? Assume about 800-900 words per post.
-
For who you write? for example a medical article or a diet articule with just 200 words won´t rank good in Google, some times you need to be more specific when you write content all depends of who are you readers. Regards,

thanks very much for the inputs - this will help me in the future

To be honest you can have a post with great images and only 200 words of content and it will do better then a long post of 1000 words.
Really just aim to make blog posts with over 200 words is my advice, take note of sites like Mashable they have 200 words and video content and it goes viral like crazy.

the keyword is moderately competitive in our area
-
I do think that everything above 600 words can be good. It really depends how competitive the keyword you are competing for is? It it is a really competitive one you better have more words and a few different headings.
Usually article directories are not letting you submit an article that is less than 400-450 words without the summary, heading and resource box ( or article bio) being counted. The average length of a press release is about 800 words. Wikipedia articles are usually longer than that but they are much more informative.
-
Each page on your site will ideally focus on keyword. You only get one page title and one main header tag per page. The content contained on the page should focus the main keyword. With this best practice in mind, normally one blog post would be contained per page.
You can offer a category type of page, but the focus of that page is the category. A category page would often contain snippets from several blog articles.

I want to use some content that I sent out in a newsletter and post as a blog, but will this count as duplicate content?
I want to use some content that I sent out in a newsletter a while ago - adding it as a blog to my website. The newsletter exists on a http://myemail.constantcontact.com URL and is being indexed by Google. Will this count as duplicate content?

Lonely lonely pages
On my site I have tons of blog posts that have never been visited. (Falls on floor in tears). I of course know why. The content is mediocre in most cases and when it was average to good I didn't market it more. My question is should I go and just scrub the non visited pages or spend the time making these pages better and work on making the content above average? My competition above me do not have as many pages and their ranking is purely (I have researched this to death) from links from sites they have developed - with good authority.

If you were guest blogging would you prefer a link or revenue share
I am looking at ideas at the moment, we have been getting a large number of guest bloggers wanting to write for our site but i have to say we are turning down around 90% of the articles as they are low quality. So i am just wondering, to attract high quality articles, should we carry on offering a link in the articles or offer them revenue share by asking for their google adsense code and putting it somewhere on the page. If we did offer this, how would we impliment this, we work on a joomla website and have read about rev share but not sure how we do this correctly. Would like to know people's thoughts on this

Do comments count as page content, as it relates to the length of content on a page?
I understand Google likes long content, and I make all my pages at least 500 words of unique and good content. But there is something I am curious about. Do they also count comments as content? The reason I'm asking is that I'm considering creating a Q&A site, where I'd control the questions, making sure they would be good ones and not duplicates, and then have people add answers. In reality, I'd be populating most the questions as first, and most definitely supplying a very good and long answer to questions. The answers would likely be in the form of comments, with highest ranked answers at top. So, I'm wondering what Google would think of a 100 word question, with a several hundred word answer in a comment, often followed by some other comments after that. Would it be a 100 word page or a 500+ word page?

What is the best way to bring a blog into my SEO strategy
We have a blog set up with Blogger and generate some great content on it. What is the best way to optimise the blog from an SEO standpoint? In particular the domain name, it is currently .blogspot.com address, is there a better way to work with that? Obviously the blog is branded with our company logo and name etc but is about the book industry. I'm basically concerned about linking people to our blog and not the website and so not getting much benefit?
