Hive Posts Length | Number of Posts, Words per Posts and Payouts | March 2026
How are Hivers doing with the length of their posts? Is post length increased or decreased? What is the average length of a post on Hive? How many words in a post are enough? Are longer posts rewarded more on Hive?
Let’s take a look at the data for post length and payouts based on this.
Here we will be looking at the number of characters and words per post, what is the average and how does the daily numbers fluctuate. Then we will be taking a look at the payouts for the posts according to their length and categorize them.
The period that is analyzed here is 2020-2026.
Total Number of Posts
First an overall look at the number of posts per day in the period. These are post only, comments not included. Here is the chart.
The number of posts per day has increased towards 2022, reaching 5k at ATH, and then in the following years dropped to 2k in September 2024. It increased again in the first half of 2025 up to 3k, and since then it has constantly going down to 1.3k in the last months.
Total Number of Characters in Posts
Here is a chart for the daily number of characters from posts.
The blockchain has data of body length, or number of characters per post. When we sum those up, on a daily level we get the above. This chart follows the post chart trend. The numbers of characters per day has dropped and it is around 5M per day.
The number of characters by itself doesn’t tell us much.
Number of Words per Post
Here is the chart.
From here we can notice that the number of words per posts has been steadily increasing in the period. It has started to around 500 words per posts on average in 2020 and grew towards 800 words per posts in 2023, since when we have a sort of flat period of stabilized posts length.
It’s quite amazing to see that the average length of posts has been growing trough the years.
As mentioned above, the blockchain only has data for number of characters per post, not a word count. I have converted the numbers of characters in words based on an average of 5 characters per word. Its not a 100% exact number but close enough.
Note that videos are usually short on characters, that doesn’t represent their length.
Posts Length and Payouts
If we categorize the number of posts according to their word count, we get this chart. This is data for the last 30 days.
We can see here that the shortest posts with 500 or less are on the top. As the post length increases, the number of posts is getting smaller. But interesting that the last category, more than 2500 words has more post than the previous one 2k to 2.5k words in a post.
What About Payouts?
Are longer posts getting rewarder more than short posts?
Here is the chart for payouts according to posts word count in the last 30 days.
We can see quite an even position when it comes to payouts for the top three categories. Posts above 1500 words are on average getting $3.5 or slightly more. Then comes the posts between 1k to 1.5k words with just below $2.3.
The posts under 500 words on average earn $1 and the posts in the range 2k to 2.5k earn on average $3.7.
Longer post obviously earn more.
But as we can see the post from 1k to 1.5k words are very close in the earning to the longer posts and they are the most efficient in terms of earnings per word.
Who is Making the Longest Posts?
Here is the chart for authors who are making the longer posts in the last 30 days.
Some curators in the top, that are usually doing a long reports summury from the post voted and a few legit authors.
All the best

The crackdown has achieved its objectives. Fewer users, fewer posts, and a lower price for Hive. Quite an accomplishment in protecting the common fund.

Hello everyone I hope you are all good and well today in this post is some of the evidence to prove my case
If you didn't know I've been getting downvoted for a long time on Hive
They have been trying to bully me with downvotes and words but it doesn't affect me I've been online for over 25 years
So I've dealt with people like this before it's nothing new
But what they are doing is bad Very badi joined steemit like everyone else thinking it offers freedom but I must say steemit offered much more freedom than Hive does
Everyone already knows I only post my own original content I have no need to steal anything from anyone
I've been labelled a lot of things on Hive 😂 by the biggest farmers scammers and downvoters
Actions speak louder than any words do especially when them words are coming from a compolsive liars
I will keep updating this post when I get time

It is a bit hard to evaluate overall metrics on a number of short vs long posts. Obviously there are more short posts. I bet a good number of the short posts are from Actifit.
I try to add substance to my Actifit posts, but I don't have time to do that every time, but I still want to track my steps on blockchain, the only way to do that in the Actifit application is to make a post every day and some of those end up short and I think that is why Actifit posts got a reputation for being "shit posts" 😀
But it totally makes sense that shorter posts earn a lot less. In my experience posts with 600+ words earn good rewards so 600 to 1000 words is probably the real sweet spot in terms of rewards for the effort.
Yes, you are prety much on spot
