It depends too much on the field you're righting about, the topic you choose and personal style. As it happens with frequency, what works for one person would never work for another. As long as the length is not somehow forced (a post being shrunk or extended just to fit a success pattern) and the readers get something out of it, the number of words is simply unimportant.
