In episode 48 of the SEOLeverage Podcast, Gert Mellak discusses the ideal length for SEO articles. He explains that the optimal length depends on the user's search intent and the depth of the topic. The episode highlights the importance of balancing content length with quality to meet user expectations and improve SEO rankings.
The length of an article depends largely on what will make Google users happy. Imagine if the search or the query is just for the conversion of centimeters to inches or perhaps, asking for the actual height of Eiffel Tower, people don't need a full article on that information. Those are transactional queries. In contrast, if the search is more in-depth, like a product review or comparing you with competitors, or getting advice with regards to the pandemic, your article should be relevant and satisfying to a Google user.
