Hi, I am using SemRush Site Audit and found 2,449 pages have low text-HTML ratio
This warning is triggered when text to HTML is 10% or less. I checked the ratio for this page and it is 4.84%.
Not sure if this is really important for SEO pupose.
The one of url tested is https://doggyzine.com/en/nutrition/10-healthy-summer-foods-for-dogs/
and tested at https://doggyzine.com/en/nutrition/10-healthy-summer-foods-for-dogs/
Could you advise how I can solve this warning from SemRush or comment on this matter.
Thanks all again
Hello!
A low text-to-HTML ratio means there is relatively little visible text content compared to the amount of HTML code on the page. This can negatively impact SEO because search engines prefer content-rich pages. To address this issue, here are several strategies you can implement:
1. Reduce Excessive HTML Code
Clean Up Inline CSS and JavaScript: Tools like WP Rocket or other caching plugins can help.
Remove Unnecessary HTML Markup: Ensure your HTML is clean and doesn’t contain redundant tags or attributes.
2. Add More Text Content
Increase the amount of meaningful, well-written text on your page. Focus on including relevant keywords and addressing user intent.
Use Alt Text for Images: Ensure that every image has descriptive alt text, which not only improves accessibility but also adds content to the page for search engines.
Use Descriptive Headers: Include H1, H2, H3 headers to structure your content. This increases readability and enhances your SEO.
3. Optimize for Core Web Vitals
Reduce Unnecessary Scripts and Plugins: Remove unnecessary plugins or extra scripts from your page. Too many scripts can increase the size of your HTML document.
Lazy Load Images: Implement lazy loading for images so they don’t bloat the initial HTML load.
4. Optimize Embedded Media
Host Media Externally: Embed videos from external platforms like YouTube or Vimeo instead of hosting them directly on your server, which can add a significant amount of HTML code.
Compress Images: Optimize image sizes using compression tools like TinyPNG to reduce the HTML document size related to image loading.
I hope that helps you!
Thank you!
