The articles about 4000-5000 words long. ------------------------------------------------------ Article Format ------------------------------------------------------ == Best Fight Gear Lists == For example: 'Best Shin Pads' or 'Best Heavy Bags for Boxers" or 'Best Punch Bags'. Each of these best lists which would be a top 5 or 10 list of products with detailed information about WHY each product is on the list, the main features, and so on. You give a complete breakdown on the types of products under that category, the pros and cons of each, other buyers information about general features to look for that product category, then a detailed list of the 5 (or in some cases 10) products, with reasons (200 or so words) why this is the case.
