What about age of the domain?

Age of domain has a plus point. But if you have good Content with proper siloing, backlinks. You can outrank it.

Yea surely, however, you also need to take offpage and other onpage factors into account as well.

Your 2k great quality content on your own domain has lower chance to outrank an average content from Forbes, CNN, etc.

Right now I would rather hesitate to say anything regarding the running core update.

First question - and no offense, meaning it serious: most of such questions can be answered with common sense. Just answer the abstract master question: does "it" find the sweet spot between Gs wish to fulfill user search intent and to sell ads?

Second question: core update... uhh. Seemingly it is pretty difficult to compete with established sites, also for long tail keywords. Let's await start of april.

The quality and relevance of content are more important than just the word count. Search engines prioritize high-quality content that provides value to readers. If the 2000-word content is more engaging, better written, and offers more useful information than the 3000-word one, it's likely to rank higher.

 

[Barnibonn]

You need to look not at word count, but at the quality and usefulness of the material.

 

[Parker2010]

Even 400 words can outrank 4000 words if you use the right quality content in natural way.

1,500 - 2,000 word articles are doing just fine. Just make sure that you cover the topic extensively. 3,000 word articles are too much fluff, i wrote more than 500 of these.
