Is 8 pages to short?

Hey everyone,

I have a question. Do you think that 8 pages of good content is ok to use as a give away for a squeeze page? I am trying to build a list and have written a short report/e book that ends up only being 8 pages. The contend is good though. I can add on if need be but I am trying to save a lot of the info for my backend product. Please let me know what you think. Thanks! This isn't in the product creation niche either.

    I think 8 pages is fine if the content is good.

    Good content is motre important for me than the length. Sometimes I have bought a WSO and only a paragraph is a nugget

    I don't care if it's 1 page, as long as that page tells me something interesting I did not know.

    And besides, for kids today, 8 pages is a giant whopper

    Make it 8 pages of "wow!" content.

    don't make it a huge title page, a table of contents page, a legal disclaimer, a 'hi thanks for reading page", a hype build up page, and then just 2 pages of ok content.

    so many freebie downloads just don't excite me when I read through them. I'd suggest focusing on one big lesson or tactic for the freebie guide and then writing just a few short pages about that awesome tactic.

    wow them, and they won't care if it's short.

    I have seen some nice WSOs here that were no more than 10 pages long.

    If you are using a freebie giveaway, it really depends if you provide anything of value.

    You shouldn't really think in terms of pages, but how good the information you are giving away is.

    The better your freebie is, the better your results will be.

    Thanks! I really appreciate your imput. The person who edited it thinks its too short. She thinks it should be 20-25 pages long! I don't agree. This is 8 pages of good content on top of the table of contents and title etc.
