💡 Pro Tips

Aim for a Flesch score of 60-70 for general web content — clear and readable for most adults.
Short sentences dramatically improve readability — aim for an average of 15-20 words per sentence.
For Etsy listing descriptions, target grade 6-8 — buyers scan quickly and want clarity.
The Gunning Fog index represents the years of education needed to understand your text on the first read.
Replace complex words with simpler alternatives: 'utilise' becomes 'use', 'demonstrate' becomes 'show'.
Use active voice instead of passive: 'The file was created' becomes 'I created the file'.
One idea per sentence, one topic per paragraph — the golden rule of readable web writing.
