Blog Readability Test My Blog Genius
- Blog Readability Test
- Reference - Blog readability test (Harold Jarche)
WHAT?
What level of education is required to understand your blog?
Click here, Enter your blogs URL, and within a few seconds you will get the results. I am not sure what formula or criteria they are using (US High School level?), but it is always fun to explore simple online tests like this one. Not much thinking needed, so why not!
MY BLOG?
My blogs reading level: Genius.
It felt great, until I thought about it a bit! Mambo-Jambo! From an instructional design (ID) point-of-view it is simply a disaster, unless most of my readers (target audience) are at that level. Hopefully, they are!
If this test is reliable and valid, I suppose I would need to use less jargons and simpler words in the future to reach the lower levels (or more people!). Why not!
Interestingly, Joseph Harts blog reading level is also Genius. Though, Stephens OLDaily blog reading level is only High School. This could be one reason (Unconscious one!) why I ranked Stephens blog higher in my Top 10 ETL blogs ranking. It might not make sense, but it does bring a bit of joy and heartache to our blogging. In short, a little copy/paste job for a lot of reflective fun!
I am still learning... :)
