What is the HTML Tag Cleaner?

The Free HTML Tag Cleaner is a utility designed to strip out messy, unnecessary code from your HTML documents. When you copy text from programs like Microsoft Word or Google Docs and paste it into a web editor, it often brings along "bloated code"—inline styles, font tags, and empty classes that can break your website's design and slow it down.

This tool cleans your code, removing the junk while preserving the essential formatting like paragraphs, bold, and italic tags.

How to Use This Tool

1. Paste Your Code: Copy your HTML from your source and paste it into the left-hand "Messy HTML" box.
2. Click "Clean HTML": The tool will instantly process your code and display the clean, lightweight version in the right-hand box.
3. Copy the Result: Use the "Copy" button to grab the clean code and paste it into your website's editor.

If you prefer writing in a simpler format first, you can use our Markdown to HTML Converter before cleaning the final output.

Why You MUST Clean Your HTML

• Improved Site Speed: Bloated code increases the size of your webpage, making it load slower. Site speed is a major Google ranking factor.
• Consistent Design: Inline styles (style="...") from a Word document can override your website's official CSS, leading to inconsistent fonts and colors. Cleaning the HTML ensures your site's design remains professional.
• Better SEO: Clean, semantic HTML is easier for search engine crawlers to read and understand, which can help with indexing and ranking.
• Prevents Errors: Unnecessary tags can cause layout issues and rendering errors on different browsers.
