When you post something here, what is the average post length that you achieve on LiteracyBase?
When I post, apart from 1 instance, I never aimed at just meeting the minimum 300 word stipulation, but rather wrote based on my knowledge and experience.
I cross 400 words on an average, and mostly it is somewhere between 450 and 530.
If I were to write a story series, it could even go to 600.
But rather than chasing word lengths, I rather enjoy what I write and write what I know and also believe in.
I find that as a right way to do things.
What about you all?

@PEEUSH TRIKHA  I have tried them all, right from 340 to 1050 words but ….. Now I am in between 350 to 600 generally.

I have yet to write a post here on LB but on other sites, I strive to write only articles that I have knowledge about and try not to worry about the word count. If I write on topics I know then I am sure I will surpass the minimum with no problem. If I am struggling with writing then I sometimes give up writing that article for another time or I give up completely. Makes no sense in writing the bare minimum when I can do so much better. But here lately I haven’t been in the mood to write.

@EvilElf  I suggest you to write a post and see how it works. However you have a choice to write anything under the sun according to your knowledge or whatever niche you select for yourself.

@PEEUSH TRIKHA  Normally I do write 500 words post here. My most of posts are between 500 to 600 words. I have also posted one article which is above 1000. But that goes rarely.

@Anand same here I posted one having over 1000 words but it did not bring expected result so I reverted back to 350-600 range. Although I hope the site will consider a few extra coins on them.

@ suny  Yes they should consider more coins for getting more lengthier posts. In fact there is not much difference in earning for 500 words and 1000 words article. So even I have returned to that range after posting once.

@sunil @peachpurple thanks for sharing. I think if the subject matter is interesting for us, word limit can easily be reached.

August 25, 2016 at 2:44 pm

@PEEUSH TRIKHA I never start writing on anything unless the subject matter is interesting and once I do I never cross check it that’s why I leave certain mistakes which I should not.

 

@Anand if the pay rate was slightly better then this site would have become an instant hit.

@evilelf that is an interesting username, yes if the subject interests us, word limit is easily crossed. Even I try to write on topics of my interest, except one case, where I found that my post length was 20/30 words short, and I had to make some extra effort to cross 300 words.
Now, some of my posts even cross 500 words.
