Content is King, and you should treat it like that.
Longer content tends to rank a lot better in Google than shorter articles, and I personally never publish content with less than 1000 words on my sites.
What I am offering
All the content will be written by me personally, you will not find weird characters in my articles PS the reason why you see weird characters in some content you might have bought is that this is how they pass Copyscape, and that only fools plagiarism checker tools but not google.
I have several websites that rank naturally without any backlinks, and they do this because of the content.
