Common questions
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time uses 238 words per minute, the same estimate the Scoped SEO extension uses. Speaking time uses 130 words per minute.
What is a good Flesch Reading Ease score?
Scores of 60 to 70 read as plain English that most adults follow easily. Higher is easier. Technical writing often scores lower and that is fine for its audience.
