  13. Flexibility is key here! There is no standard word count preference. I think it’s based on the niche you choose, the audience you hope to target, or the kind of content you want to produce.

  22. Interesting experience! Rewriting your own blog articles is an excellent way of recycling them. It is interesting to write ahead as if helps in terms of time management, less pressure and brings more creativity.
