# Text-to-HTML Ratio

> Compute the ratio of visible text to total HTML to spot bloated, markup-heavy pages.

**Category:** On-Page & Meta

## How it works

The Text-to-HTML Ratio runs directly against a live URL or your own pasted content — no signup, no install. Results come back in seconds as a prioritized, plain-English list rather than a raw score, so you know exactly what to fix first and why it matters. It's a focused, single-purpose check, built to answer this one question quickly rather than replace a full on-page & meta audit.

1. Enter the relevant input for your page or project.
2. Review the tool's output and the reasoning behind each recommendation.
3. Apply the changes it surfaces to your actual page or content.
4. Re-check after publishing to confirm the fix took effect.

**Why it matters:** Title tags and meta descriptions are still the first thing a searcher (and increasingly, an AI answer engine) sees about a page — small, precise changes here routinely move click-through rate more than a full content rewrite would.

This is a free, interactive, browser-based tool — no signup required. It runs client-side JavaScript, so this Markdown page describes what it does; [use the live tool](https://iliassami.com/tools/text-to-html-ratio) to actually run it.
