Readability

Readability describes how easily a person can understand and follow written information. Familiar vocabulary, manageable sentences, clear headings, and a logical order can help a visitor locate an answer without rereading several times. A home repair website should explain scheduling, service limits, and pricing terms in language customers recognize. Readability is influenced by presentation too, including line length and contrast, but it is not the same as typography. Automated readability scores can reveal possible problems, yet a low reading-grade score does not guarantee clarity or accuracy. The best test is whether the intended reader can understand the message and act confidently on it.
