What this measures: Only the HTML document itself. External CSS, JS, and images are fetched separately by Google and each has its own 2MB limit. However, anything inline in your HTML (inline styles, inline scripts, base64 images, inline SVGs) does count toward your HTML size.

Why does HTML file size matter for SEO?

Googlebot has a 2MB limit when crawling HTML pages. If your page exceeds this, Google will only index the first 2MB and ignore everything after. This means important content, links, or structured data at the bottom of large pages may never be seen by Google.

According to Google's John Mueller, the median web page is just 33KB, and 90% of pages are under 151KB. If your page is significantly larger, it could indicate bloated inline CSS/JS, excessive DOM elements, or content that would be better served as a PDF.

Best practices: Put your most important content early in the HTML. Move large CSS and JavaScript to external files. If you have extremely long-form content (thousands of words), consider splitting it across multiple pages or publishing as a PDF (Google allows up to 64MB for PDFs).
