Reading time uses an average adult silent reading speed of 238 words per minute. Speaking time uses 130 wpm, a comfortable conversational pace.
A score from 0–100 measuring how easy your text is to read. 90–100 = Very Easy; 60–70 = Standard (plain English target); below 50 = Difficult (academic/technical). Aim for 60+ for general web content.
Keyword density is how often a word appears relative to total words. For SEO, a density of 1–3% for your target keyword is generally recommended. Over-using a word signals keyword stuffing, which can hurt rankings.
