Blog Readability Test

So CrunchGear found this neat little test on Neatorama and decided to run it on their blog, their results piqued my interests, so I ran it on SlashGear. Now I have no clue what criteria the test is based on or what methods it uses to evaluate blogs, but I did find our results interesting.

We received the reading level of High School. I can’t really tell if that’s good or bad, I suppose it means our writing/posts are at a high school level, but does that mean we are cutting of potential readers of a lower reading level? I suppose its good enough our staff is collectively intelligible enough to write at a high school level.

In case you are wondering, CrunchGear received the Elementary rating, once again, I don’t know if that’s better or worse than our rating, it just means more people can read and understand their site I reckon. Honestly I don’t foresee someone attempting to read our site and having too many troubles save for confusing technical terms with product/brand names. If you want you put your blog, or maybe another blog you read through the test, the link is below, have fun!
