I have a site about tourist attractions. Each page contains long article about many attractions.

Is it a good idea to split all pages to short pages (only 100 word pages, each attraction on its own page) so I could use a good title tags on every page like: Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest

Thanks for answers

Two thoughts:

1. If desire is to serve as many ads as possible, then bust it into itty bitty pages. And possibly lose a few visitors who aren't willing to play that game.

2. Offer the article in full if reasonable length.

It's all about the clicks to content (not ads) that makes a website visit wonderful for the visitor. If they have to WORK to get to the end they tend to give up and go somewhere else.

I did not write anything about ads, I just want that people find my site via google search etc. If someone find information about Hungarian National Gallery and make search like Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest my long Budapest-page not even exists top 500 search results. But if I have a page only about Hungarian National Gallery (and nothing else) and term "Hungarian National Gallery Budapest" in title tag it should be easy to get good position in search engines. And of course there would be logical and easy navigation for other attractions in Budapest and other travel destinations...

You've answered your own question. Each page should be specific in content. If it take only 100 words that's all it takes. But chopping a three hundred word article into three 100 word pages is merely irritating.

Forget the ads. Count the clicks.
