How many words should the article have?

The word count should be controlled according to the content, theme, and writing style of the article. Generally speaking, the number of words in the article should be slightly greater than or equal to the number of words in the title. This could avoid the situation where the title was too long and the main content was too short. It was especially important to control the number of words in a novel. The number of words in a novel should be decided according to the development of the story and the needs of the character description. In some novels with complicated plots and many characters, a lot of background descriptions, character introductions, and psychological activities might be needed. The number of words could be extended appropriately. In some novels with simple plots and few characters, the word count could be shortened to highlight the key points. The word count of the article should be determined according to the specific situation of the article to ensure that the content of the article is substantial and the structure is clear.
