The analysis indicates that the author of http://www.poetryhut.com/wordpress is of the type:

ENTJ - The Executives

The direct and assertive type. They are especially attuned to the big picture and how to get things done. They are talented strategic planners, but might come off as insensitive to others needs and appear arrogant. They like to be where the action is and like making bold and sweeping changes in complex situations.

The Executives are happy when their work let them learn and improve themselves and how things work around them. Not being very shy about expressing their ideas and often very outgoing they often make excellent public speakers.

Also, “We have strong indicators that http://www.poetryhut.com/wordpress/ is written by a man (98%).” haha from gender analyzer
