    How many words as a minimum should you have on a web page for SEO?

    Someone told me that the best amount of words for the WORK YOU DO for SEO is 300-600 is that true?

    in some sense it is true, but i have seen a lot of posts on some big blogs less than 300 words also. However I prefer to put more content in my posts and Google is a hungry web animal. So Google Loves More Content and Quality content. I will suggest to write a post of minimum 800 words and preferably 1200 words.

    With blogs you can rank easily with 1-50 words. As long as you have your blog posts optimized, and you have a fresh and unique content. Usually people are lacking the last two.

    I think search engines give some priority to blogs. I also saw many blogs with just few lines of content and pics got well ranked.

    nope, about 200 enough, but I think less than 200 also no problem.
