I could not agree with you more. You have to just break out of the "accepted norm"....That's not what we've been called to. There's so much more out there for us than we could ever ask or think.
I also knew that you and I had a lot in common, especially the "What? Did you just say it can't be done? Oh yea? JUST WATCH ME" factor about us. It's something that is just ingrained in our very makeup I believe. Here's to a bright future and a flourishing friendship between us !

Thanks for the words of encouragement. It's sometimes difficult to strike a balance when writing for two crowds; those who have never heard of SEO and those who are experts.
Regarding an ideal word count for a business blog post: I would definitely recommend keeping the post under 500 words. If you feel the subject matter deserves more than that, consider breaking the topic into a couple of posts that each target one particular idea. In order to include your targeted keywords 3-4 times naturally throughout the post, 400-500 seems to be an ideal number.
Also, the way that a post is visually presented is just as important as brevity. Sub-headers, Bold text, and Bullet Points will guide your readers along and help them find exactly what they are looking for. Remember, web readers skim, scan, and are cruising the web at 70 miles per hour. Avoid cleverly ambiguous headlines, subtitles that don’t push the ball forward, and cutesy sentences. (also, writing for a 4th grade reading level is ideal)
Demian Farnsworth says it best, "Web readers don't want to speculate on how to start a lawnmower. All they want to do is cut the grass." Give them what they need and they will keep coming back.
