Free Page Size Checker
Page weight is a ranking factor in disguise — heavy HTML slows rendering and burns crawl budget. NToolHub's free Page Size Checker weighs your HTML and runs a real gzip compression pass (via CompressionStream) to show true transfer size. Performance-minded SEOs use it to catch bloated templates.
How to Use the Page Size Checker
- Paste the page HTML and click Measure Size.
- Read the raw vs gzipped transfer size — gzip is what users download.
- Aim for under 100 KB transferred for the HTML document.
- Minify markup, move scripts to external files and defer non-critical JS.
Features
Paste HTML for byte-accurate raw size plus a genuine in-browser gzip estimate with compression ratio, performance verdicts at 100KB/300KB thresholds, and guidance on what the measurement covers versus external assets.
Benefits & Use Cases
Lighter pages render faster, score better on Core Web Vitals (LCP), and let Google crawl more of your site per visit. Knowing your true transfer size — not just raw bytes — is what actually affects users.
Tips
Aim for under 100KB transferred for the HTML document, minify markup, move inline scripts and styles to external deferred files, and audit images/fonts separately in DevTools — they usually dwarf the HTML.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why show gzipped size instead of raw size?
Servers compress HTML with gzip/brotli before sending it — the compressed size is what users actually download. A 300KB document might transfer as just 40KB.
Is the gzip estimate accurate?
Yes — the tool runs a real gzip compression pass in your browser via CompressionStream, not a rough ratio guess. Results match server gzip closely.
What's a good HTML page weight?
Under 100KB transferred is excellent; under 300KB is acceptable. Beyond that, minify, defer scripts and split content.
Does this include images and scripts?
No — it measures the HTML document only. Images, fonts and JS bundles are separate requests; audit those in your browser's DevTools Network panel.
