I've started drafting some Cornerstone articles. Do you think they are worth it? If nothing else, it gives me another blog post but I wonder if they are actually worth-while?

I am also writing a very long blog-post (currently 2500 words) on a subject of interest to me. I'm going make sure it has internal and external links, with plenty of photos and its an interesting read. Will it negatively affect my blog? Most my blog posts are 300-500 words.

I can't think of any negative that comes from writing a long post

The more content the better in Google's eyes!

Good stuff.

:)
One bit of advice I would give you is when you write cornerstone articles where you obviously want it to rank well in Google is make sure you get some backlinks done elsewhere that link DIRECTLY to the cornerstone article instead of to your homepage URL

Yes, FAR More than just here!! More places that send the Google spiders over to your cornerstone page the better!!

Well it is now scheduled for posting. Currently aiming at 29th August (although this may change if I decide to re-order my blog posts again!).

I have two other cornerstone articles in draft - so hopefully they will be out in the coming month.

Hope it does well for ya!

Cornerstone articles can be a pain to write just because of how long they take but can REALLY pay off in the long term if you affiliate them right!

I’m not sure mine will affiliate link well, but they will point to relevant articles on my blog.
