In the help page for creating a gig (https://help.fiverr.com/hc/en-us/articles/360010451397-Creating-a-Gig) Fiverr says:

Make sure that your title is short, clear, and to the point

Is that still the best advice (which is also given in gig guidelines) if taking into account just the current minimum and maximum word counts in gig titles (ignoring gigs created years ago when the min/max were different)? Are short titles really better in general than medium or long titles (taking into account just currently allowed word counts in gig titles)?

This page also says a similar thing: https://help.fiverr.com/hc/en-us/articles/12475963015185-Inbox-Ads-tips-FAQs

Make sure your Gig image looks good, and has a short and concise Gig title.

This poll asks about word counts in titles excluding the initial "I will" as the gig set up page gives totals excluding that initial "I will".

Instead of words - count of characters with spaces would be a better benchmark. 

Search results can show 60 to 65 characters (with spaces) under the gig thumbnail - so any title which sounds compelling and complete within this character limit, would be ideal.

Yes we could do a poll of that too. Or I can try editing the current poll.

Though there's 80 characters possible for new gigs and only 20 options available in polls. Though I could put ranges of them in each option (eg. 1 to 5, 6 to 10). Creating lots of options might also mean less data per option shown which might make it harder to see which are best/any patterns if there are aren't enough voters accurately filling in the poll (eg. one person entered 15 in this poll but has no active gigs with 15 words in the title 🙂). It's possible there might not be that much disadvantage for too many characters compared to too many words (though too many of either will cause titles to get cut off (in some way) like you say.

Edit: it won't let me edit the poll to add a new question so I can try adding a new thread for that.
