I’ve read that most blog post should be kept to 500 words or less

Title Cloud - Top 10% of SEOmoz Post Like Mike did in his previous post, let’s take a look at the content in the posts: images, list, and videos. In the chart below you will see that having a just a list in a post compared to just text, doubles the average number of linking domains. Have a video compared to just text will almost triple the average number of linking domains. A post that has an image and a list will also triple the average number of linking domains to the post.


I’m sure many of you are like me and do a quick email lists australia scan of the post before actually reading it. By adding images, videos, and lists, it makes it easy to get a quick synopsis on what the post is about, encouraging people to go back and do a full read along with a possible link. Adding Images and Lists are easy to do and could result in a post that is more link worthy. Avg # of In Linking Domains Vs Media Type I also recorded the length of the post to see if it had an effect on the average number of linking domains.





The length recorded was only that of the post and not the comments or other areas of the page to keep the data accurate.. That information seems to be incorrect if you are going to post on SEOmoz and want it to be link worthy. The chart below shows that posts with 1800 or more words have a much higher average of linking domains.
