I have heard, read, and seen with my own eyes - that google is giving more clout to longer posts. I am seeing some 4,000 word posts rank #1 when the rest of their numbers don't look that great - the only thing pushing them up is word count.

I am aiming for 2,000 words - good content. Not rambling. At least I hope.
