Subject: Low literacy
This is my first post. Hello, hello.
I was wondering if any of you have ever had to ensure that your site was at
a certain reading level? I am trying to get my website at a 6th-grade
reading level (!) and am finding it impossible to locate any tools to test
this. I am looking for a tool that will not only tell me the level at which
I am writing, but also point out the problem words/sentences/areas. I have
been told that a program like this would be difficult to develop because
readability is determined mathematically.
Does anyone have any help they can give me?
