What is a Readability Score?

A readability score measures how easy your text is to read and understand. Higher scores mean simpler, more accessible writing. For web content and blog posts, aim for a Flesch Reading Ease score of 60 or above.

This free tool calculates four industry-standard readability metrics: Flesch Reading Ease, Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level, Gunning Fog Index, and Coleman-Liau Index. It also detects passive voice, adverbs, and long sentences — common issues that hurt readability.

Good readability improves SEO. Google prioritizes content that users engage with, and readable content gets more time-on-page, lower bounce rates, and more shares. Whether you're writing blog posts, landing pages, or emails — check your readability before publishing.
