Article Readability Study
Using the Laesbarhedsindex (LIX) readability formula, we analyzed 100,000 random sample of articles to see what level our members are writing their articles for:
Essentially this chart shows that our members are more likely to write Easier-to-read articles than they are to write Difficult-to-read articles.
Would you find any value in knowing at what level your articles are written for in terms of readability or do you think this metric is just a novelty and will have no long-lasting value?
Chris, does your survey have any way to correllate the readability score with popularity?
I think the metric is interesting, but only if put into context.
