To help you write readable copy we offer a readability check in Yoast SEO. It
checks the length of your sentences and paragraphs, and whether you use
transition words or subheadings. What’s more, it assesses your use of passive
voice and helps you identify complex words in your text so you can make
adjustments accordingly. Next to that, you can also find the Flesch Reading Ease
score in the Insight tab in Yoast SEO. It’s a formula that indicates how easy to
understand your text is. Check out the readability score of this text:
