About Word Count

Google's John Muller confirmed: "Word count is not a ranking factor. Save yourself the trouble."

No. Absolutely not!

Any suggestion that word count is a ranking factor is bad SEO and completely wrong. In fact, it is an insult to Google and Bing to suggest such a thing.

There is no limit, short or long, or even a range that influences search except for the ridiculous. The advice to create high quality content stands. Short and concise content, if done well, is perfectly fine.
