About Content/Code Ratio Analysis (Free)

The text-to-HTML ratio expresses the percentage of a web page that contains visible text compared to its total HTML size. For example, if a 100 KB page contains only 15 KB of actual text, the ratio is 15%. Search engines use this metric as a signal to understand whether a page adds value to the user; a low ratio indicates excessively bloated template code or insufficient content.

Pages that fall below this threshold usually suffer from issues such as excessively long inline style/script blocks, unnecessary nested div structures, empty sections, or thin content. Our tool retrieves your page from the server side and processes the raw HTML. <script> and <style> It leaves out the blocks, strips away all the tags, and calculates the remaining visible text.

A second option is to paste the HTML code: you can perform a ratio analysis on local files or draft content in your browser without sending a request to the server by pasting the page code yourself. In both modes, the results are listed as HTML size, text size, ratio percentage, and SEO comment. The most effective ways to increase an insufficient ratio are: simplifying the template, moving excess scripts/styles to external files, and enriching the page content (paragraphs, headings, lists).
