Not all blogs are trying to reach the same readers , just like the Times and Guardian P.S. That statement has nothing to do with whether a Gunnig Fog Index of 12.43 and a Flasch Reading Index of 60.21 mean anything or not! Amino,

I got an 8.82 and my percentage of words with three or more syllables is 14.03 percent.But I don't think this judges how stupid your blog is Roba, I think it tries to give a score on how easy is it to read, which means that an average score of 7-10 is much better than scoring above 10, because you would want to get your message across to everybody, rather than just permitting few people to actually understand what you're saying.Plus it basically measures vocabulary, professional writing is about keeping it concise and simple, no? (or at least I think that's what it's about). Otherwise, writers would have resorted to learning from 19th Century novels to enhance their writing skills... Hahaha, I like this game.
