What Is Text to HTML Ratio?

Text to HTML ratio is the percentage of actual text content on a page compared to the total HTML code size. A healthy ratio indicates that your page has substantial content relative to its code — a signal of quality to both users and search engines.

  • 25-70%: Generally considered a healthy range with good content density.
  • 10-25%: Borderline — may indicate excessive markup or thin content.
  • Below 10%: Often flagged as "thin content" with too much code bloat.

Why It Matters

While Google doesn't use text-to-HTML ratio as a direct ranking factor, pages with higher ratios tend to load faster, provide better user experience, and contain more substantial content — all of which are ranking signals.

Pages with a text ratio above 25% load on average 40% faster than bloated pages below 10%, directly impacting Core Web Vitals scores.
