Your Blog’s Readability

While doing some blog hopping, I came across a Fun Tool where it rates the reading level required of a blog! Apparantly for my blog it is Undergraduate Level!

blog readability test TV Reviews

Initially I was sort of glad about this rating for it gave me a sense that the content is not like the blabbering of a mad man! Some of my friend's blogs indicated Genius Level! Wow! On second thought, having a Genius Level may not be such a great thing for it means only intellectuals can understand your content! Maybe it gives the blog owner a sense of pride in an academic sense but it also means many other readers will find it boring if it is difficult to follow your thoughts, arguments etc.

Wanna find out about your blog's readability level? Check it out for fun!

    Hmm, this looks interesting, how do you reach higher level?

    but i think the main thing is for people to understand and enjoy – that’s whats most important..

    i don’t know how they rated this…but the genius one is so confusing…should it be good or the other way round…guess my high school level should be ok with most readers….

    wow, cool tool. I am going to try it on my personal blog. Although I guess I have to be careful what I wish for. Maybe it might say “Middle School LEVEL”

    which my kids think I have since I still love to watch cartoons.

    I think though Middle School kids are pretty smart, so maybe that wouldn’t be too bad.

    Have a Great Weekend!

    hey jasmine, getting high school level means your blog’s readability is great!
