ideal length of hubs
I guess you'd have to base that on whether you write poetry or articles. Of course poetry takes a whole different form and so I think the focus is on the stanzas, the intertwining meaning (to the author) and the lyrical quality. And this is a true guess, because I'm not a poet.
As for articles, I'd aim for a minimum of 400 words. Mine vary. I can write (very easily) up to 6/700 words without a pause. Then I start to check and word count, depending on what I'm writing about.
And 400 words is only a few paragraphs - achievable I think
Honestly some of mine are quite lengthy and some are short, I know if it is to long sometimes I lose interest, if it is to short I look for more. Something in between 700-800 words in my opinion is perfect, however it is only my opinion.

Article Length
I tend to write longer articles for Hubpages (2000 plus words). Would I get more traffic if I wrote two 1000 word or three 700 word articles on related subjects rather than one longer article? Please let me know your experiences and thoughts.

length of article
Dear all, HubPages is telling me that my article is too short. Its 950 words and many of my previously published articles were that long or shorter. Any ideas?
