What is the Readibility Score of Our Article ?
Readibility is the ease with which a reader can understand a written text.
( en.m.wikipedia.org ).
If we have installed Yoast SEO plugin, there are two indicators that show quality of the article. The indicators are READIBILITY and SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION ( SEO ). It can be in red, yellow or green. We want to reach green colour for both.
It is very exciting to learn more about readibility by using the link I found in training created by our top member, Mr. Michael Kearns.
Just copy our article and paste in the place suitable ( box with pencil picture - Text ) then click "Measure Readibility" button. The result appear in seconds count. Amazing experience !!
We can know :
1. Readibility Rating and recommendation related with the article so that we can do efforts to increase the score. The best rating is A. Example of recommendation : You are using too many long words. Try replacing some of them with shorter alternatives.
2. Readibility Grade Levels.
3. Readibility Scores.
4. Text Quality
5. Tone, tend to be formal or conversational
6. Sentiment, negative or positive from beginning, middle until the end of the article.
7. Gender : Female or Male
8. Statistics : count of character, syllable, word, unique word, sentence
9. Text Composition : percentage of adjectives, adverbs, conjunctions, determiners, interjections, nouns, prepositions, pronouns, qualifiers, verbs in the article.
8. Keyword Density consist of 1 Word Keyword, 2 Words Keywords and 3 Words Keywords.
9. Longest Elements, consist of :
- Longest sentences by word count
- Longest words by syllable count
- Longest words by letter count
https://readable.io is a powerful link to help us improve the article readibility. I found unique experience that the article got A from this tool but Yoast SEO indicator still in yellow colour. Hope more experienced member share your tips to correct it.

Thanks Melani - Great readability tool. I'll try it and see how it stacks up against Yoast. Thanks for providing the link.
Hello Melani,
This is valuable information. Thank you for posting. I will be checking it out.
Thanks again,

Thank you for this information about this plugin. I don't use it but I have read many b logs, here, that talk in glowing terms about it; I may change my mind at some point in time.
I have been using a web based readability scoring system that works quite well that many of my article buyers request me to use, so I do.
That is a web based readibility scoring system. I compare the result with Yoast SEO plugin, lol.
It really sounds like your Yoast plugin provides a LOT more information; Always a good thing!
I think so. But we should reset google analytics after add Yoast SEO plugin. Fortunately there is a training link about that. How To Install Google Analytics with Yoast
