RE: [steemiq.me] How smart is your writing? Find out your SteemIQ!
Very interesting. And it prompts some good questions for bloggers:
- Who is your target audience?
- What level of reading do you think they respond to?
- What is your current SteemIQ and where do you think it should be for your audience?
Personally, I enjoy content that is easy to read but shows a level of competence in the subject. Not the super technical "you must be a PHD to understand this" posts, but the posts that demonstrate someone has a good understanding of their topic and can describe it to the public well.
When people go out of there way to increase the reading level of their posts as high as possible, that turns me off. It is like word masturbation where the author gets off on their sesquipedalian posts.

Very good points. So far, I have yet to see any super technical content on Steemit, although some people have claimed that some of my posts are like that. :/
We will be continuously improving the algorithm and listening to user feedback.
Currently, most of the top voted posts are either personal stories or updates to Steemit. We seek to provide a tool for people to find posts that are intelligent and in a wide variety of topics. #academicspotlight substeemit is also doing great work.
