Minimum is 500 but more is better. write in structured way
 
Whatever it takes to completely cover the main keywords. Look at your competition and write a more thorough article. It could be 300 words or it could be 10,000 words. Don't get stuck on word count, that's when articles get filled with fluff. Focus on complete and thoroughly answering targeted searches.

The amount of words is related to the size of the articles you are competing with for the search term. So there is not a fixed answer.
And yes, in SEO, the bigger the better.
 
I heard doing a minimum of 1,500 is good for SEO, because more content in an article the higher the chances it'll get ranked.

This is the comment you should be reading, OP!
 
It's preferable if you bring your article up to 1000 words or more. Don't focus on it too much, but make sure to cover the topic fully.
 
i think a good mix up is very good since its look more natural just my opinion here i didnt try it yet but i want to try it later
 
Dear, its depend that for what purpose you write the articles. as an Adsense Expert 8000 to 10,000 words articles is good for adsense niche.
 
Article length won't have much impact on ranking but does impact your conversion rate or advertising revenue, 1000 to 1500 is a good length for general info or review articles, For guides and in depth information article 2000+ words.
 
Enough to cover the topic being discussed in a full and concise manner. For me that's anywhere from 700 words to around 1800 words. Paragraphs, headings, image, and all that good stuff too. I've got one article ranked #1 for one search phrase and #2 for 3 others and #5 for a fourth related search phrase. I cover the topic in depth and it shows up for all those without me having to target them. Granted, these are informational articles designed to bring in visitors and not an article trying to sell them something. This article in particular is around 1200 words, if memory serves.
 
You need to cover the subject that you are talking about
sometimes it need 500 and sometimes 5000
 
Look at what your competitors are doing and make your articles better. There's no magic number you have to hit.
 
Look at your competitors.

I always look to include 500 words. If it's good reliable informative content, then I go for 900+

As long as the content is displayed comfortably and accurately then no problems there.

Content is KING.
