Before Doing SEO : Along with optimizing your content you also must consider your reader. I have seen some one who write a huge paragraph!. It may be highly optimized but I don't think that would please a reader, there may be a chance to leave the page and surf for another simple one.
So always write considering your blog visitors as much as possible. How do you do that? very simple, use familiar words, avoid complex sentences, write in good grammar, the idea should be clear and the last but not least one that you must not write a long paragraph. If it is necessary to write an article which have a long content, separate them with one blank line space as you see here.
