Looking through PC Magazine's Top 100 Undiscovered Websites, I found Website Grader.  Naturally, I was tempted to see how my blog stacks up.

Here's how I did: http://www.websitegrader.com/wsgid/222023/default.aspx

My blog got a score of 72, which I imagine rides mostly on the Alexa rank of Vox (last I recall, subdomains do not get counted separately, so your Alexa rank is really the rank of Vox overall).  If your blog actually gets read (unlike mine), your score will probably be higher.

Some interesting things I noticed that apply to all of us:

1. The meta-data description is blank...wouldn't it be awesome if they added a feature to let us come up with a meta-data description for each individual blog?
2. Apparently Vox uses twice as many meta keywords as recommended.
3. We all have multiple H1 headings...apparently that's unusual.

Now what I find particularly entertaining about my score is the "Readability Level".  Apparently they consider my page to be written on a level suitable for people with advanced degrees (i.e. PhDs and similar level degrees).  Am I really that hard to read?  And to think that I'm still working on my first bachelor's degree. ;)
