Found a niche that could make 3000+ word articles possible without adding fluff. I talking about teaching people to do something with pictures/captions and detailed explanations. Think of Ifixit or something but this niche requires a lot of theoretical explanation that is hard to understand from books. I'm a SME in it but would like to dumb it down further to make it easier for people to start off.

What are the implications of a single page 3000+ word count articles on SEO/ page view minutes? Should I be focusing on the material and forget about the rest?

I also dont want to have too many articles on the site. 30 detailed posts should be enough. I'm thinking of offering an ebook with all of the content for offline consumption. that would be one way of monetizing it.

Has anyone ever done this? Would like to start off with a sense of direction.

If you are a pro in this area and are willing to write detailed tutorials you are already several steps ahead of people buying filler content and worrying about SEO. As long as you follow some onpage and site structure basics Gorgle will love your posts.

Publishing few posts is not an issue at all either. Make your content ever-green, remove date from posts, and with time you'll have impressive pillar posts and good-looking social share counter buttons.

Find and read some outreach posts on Backlinko.com - namely the ones about outreach promotion of "pillar" content. If your guides are extensive you can ask anyone in a similar niche for a link and you will be getting it.

Infographics and howto videos might also work well as another traffic channel for you with time.

Ebook is a great idea too, you can send people first 5 pages of it for free once they sign up to your list, or follow you in social media.

All in all the way you described it looks very promising. Just focus on your content and notice all possible channels of getting traffic, then work on them when some of your content is ready.

Just my 2 cents, hope that helps.
 
Thanks dzianis. I'm already on it. In the past year I made a few mistakes that I'll be sure to avoid. Hopefully I'll have something to report back in a few months.
