What the Text to HTML Ratio Tells You
Every web page is a mix of two things, the words people read and the code that builds the page. The text to HTML ratio measures the balance between them. It divides the size of the visible text by the size of the full HTML, then shows the result as a percentage. A page that is mostly real content scores higher, while a page that is mostly markup, scripts, and inline styles scores lower.
This checker fetches the page, strips out the scripts, styles, comments, and tags, and measures what is left. You get the ratio with a plain verdict, plus the raw text size, the HTML size, and the word count. That makes it easy to spot pages that look full but are actually thin, or pages weighed down by bloated code.
A common rule of thumb is that 25 percent or more is healthy, but treat it as a guide, not a hard rule. The ratio is one signal among many. Use it to find pages worth a closer look, then check the content and code by hand.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the text to HTML ratio.
What is a good text to HTML ratio?
A ratio of around 25 percent or higher is often considered healthy for a content page. Lower ratios are not always a problem, but very low numbers can point to thin content or heavy code.
How is the ratio calculated?
The visible text size is divided by the full HTML size, then shown as a percentage. Scripts, styles, comments, and tags are removed first so only readable text is counted.
Does the ratio affect SEO?
It is a minor signal, not a direct ranking factor. Search engines care about useful content. A very low ratio can hint at thin or bloated pages, which is worth fixing for other reasons.
Can I check any website?
Yes. You can check your own pages or any public URL. The page is fetched live and measured, so the result reflects what is served right now.
Why is my ratio lower than expected?
Large scripts, inline styles, long navigation menus, and lots of markup all add HTML without adding text. Reducing that code or adding more content raises the ratio.
Is this tool free?
Yes, it is completely free with no signup and no limits.
