Google Blog Posts

Google's John Mueller was asked if Google looks at the number of blog posts on a blog as some sort of metric to figure out if the site should rank well or not. John Mueller said on Twitter "Google doesn't count your blog posts."

John added that this is not about the quantity of your blog posts but the quality of them. John said "I'd focus on quality rather than quantity. Make something truly awesome, unique, compelling, & insightful. If that's a single page, it's a single page. More pages, or more words on a page, don't make something better."

Here are those tweets:

In short, it is not about quantity, it is about quality.
