摘要:The Web has become a popular and important medium of transmitting information from one place to another place. For making information accessible to all, we need to check their accessibility and readability score. Readability is a metric to measure the success of information being successfully conveyed to a large population when people are trying to access it. This survey paper analyzes the popular readability indices used to check the readability of websites and web pages. Most of the available readability metrics consider only textual features of the web while checking the readability of websites, and a lot of factors which affect readability are not taken into account. Based on survey findings, we provide some useful suggestions, which are, if considered while developing readability formulas, the results will be more effective.
