Are short-form blog posts making a comeback?

Been testing some 500–700 word blog posts lately and noticed they index faster and get long tail traction easier. Might be Google favoring quick answers again. Anyone else seeing better results with short content after the recent updates?

Concise content often wins by meeting user intent quickly—quality over length is key

With AI, google can now understand posts better. So, they are preferring direct answers that serve user intent. If users want a yes or no, there is no need to write a 5k words article. You can sum it up within 400-500 words.

I recently noticed that too, short posts tend to rank higher and better on search engines.

Yeah, I've been seeing that too-seems like google's leaning back toward quick, straight to the point content again.
