Text To Code Ratio Checker

It is important to build optimised web sites, not just on the back end, but on the front end too. This tool will tell you how much code you are using compared to the amount of content that is on your page.

A lot of search engines such as Google base their search results upon relevancy to the content provided. I a page isn't relevant, it won't appear in the search engine results pages (SERPs) as high as a page that is.

If your web page contains too much code, such as HTML, this could prevent a search engine spider from crawling the page in its entirety. Search engine crawlers these days have become much more advanced and are able to check the amount of code there is on a page and compare it to the amount of text as part of its algorithm. If the page is too big, the spider may only capture portions of the page, leaving out possible vital and relevant content.

Type your domain into the form below, without the http://www. bit and we'll run a quick check to see what your code to text ratio is.

What do these ratios mean??

Basically, the higher the percentage, the better. Up to a certain point that is. If you've got higher than about 70% or so then you've got a lot of text and not a lot of code, which might sound like a good thing, but could represent spam too. We have added a traffic light colour scheme to the result of your checked page, Red, Amber and Green.

• Red: 0% - 10%
• Amber: 11% to 24% (and 70% +)
• Green: 25% and over and your page is BLOAT FREE and will work well in the SERP's.
