I think what you have said rings true just by looking at the blogs that get the most attention. I myself write just a little bit too much per post, and I have realized my need to scale back, as people seem to have lost some of their initial interest with my blog. Short and to the point is very important, especially considering that people don't like reading lengthy things when they have their lives to worry about, let alone how annoyed some people get trying to read long blocks of text via internet! -Corner Girl Wonderful article, Brad!

It’s funny, a lot of people who come to my blog seem to like what I write, but few people actually come. Interesting post.

Your vocabulary does not only mean "big words" (for want of a better description) but also colloquial and "kiddie" words, depending on your readership. While I enjoy proper language as much as the next one - it needs to be delivered at a pitch the readership can understand. If your readership is perhaps English second language, then this needs to be brought into the puzzle. Thanks for a great post! Dave Hi Brad,

One of the things that my father used to hate, and I have inherited from him, is seeing the same word used over and over in a sentence or paragraph. I find myself actively rewriting such sentences to make sure I get my meaning across without this kind of repetition. This may be one of the reasons why I rail against keyword stuffing and densities in articles - it ruins them I think. I think using a wide vocabulary makes reading more enjoyable.
