How to make text easier to read

Keep sentences short: one idea per sentence.
Use active voice: “We teach SEO” instead of “SEO is taught”.
Choose simple words: “use” instead of “utilise”.
Break up text with headings, lists and short paragraphs.

The formula works for English. For Hindi or Hinglish text, read it aloud and simplify by ear. Count words with the word counter and score the whole page with the SEO content score checker.
