If an article shows Readability score of 5 at Hemingway Editor but grammarly fixes some words and then Hemingway Editor shows Yellow (hard to read words), then what to decide?

Which one is good to go with for adsense approval and SEO purpose?
 
I only use Grammarly so far, but that Hemingway looks interesting; anyone who got experience with it care to share?

From my experience Grammarly sometimes is not really that accurate, i fix the grammar and regarding others i double check because sometimes Grammarly re-phrase whole sentences some that are not that great or in the desired context.
 
Get rid of Hemingway
It's misleading to some degree. Most sentences that actually make sense are labeled 'hard to read'
Then how do I assess if my article is full readable for adsense and SEO purpose?
 
Know that readability will be affected if your article is in a relatively technical topic. For example, finance- and science-related articles usually do not get a high readability score due to the presence of jargons. How can you paraphrase "moving average convergence divergence (MACD) for an article that's about stock trading? You can't. It's a proper noun. Readability checkers don't know that. So, don't force a high readability score for a relatively technical topic.
 
OMG, just tried Hemingway Editor.
Tested a page from my site... too hard to read.
So I wrote "Yesterday I went out and had lots of fun. I didn't meet anybody so next time I'll have a better day. What do you do when you go out? Do you like to read and you only write." - Good content LOL

If it's human readable with some keyword placement for SEO - it's good enough.

Was thinking the same about Hemingway too.

So, if I were to write proper readable article for adsense approval and ranking article for SEO, is grammarly good?

Grammarly's good enough. However, I only use it to double-check the quality of my work for missing punctuations or misspelled words.

Any grammar-checking tool won't be of much help if you can't write something that makes sense without the aid of such tool. Sometimes, Grammarly suggests something that will change what you mean. So, if you can't blindly accept everything Grammarly suggests.

Correct. Was just looking for some extra stuff. But still shocked at Hemingway editor lol
 
Go with any one tool and stick in that.

Both the tools are good.
 
That is the problem is using multiple tools. Just use only one and it will give you best results. Both are correct but there is no hard and fast rule.
 
I don't trust Grammarly all the time. It is misleading sometimes.
 
I guess Grammarly is the best tool out there. If are trying to get Adsense approval, it is better to use Grammarly.
