Very low ratio suggests heavy framework overhead or boilerplate.

Why this matters

Informational: ratio of visible text bytes to total HTML bytes. Very low ratios suggest excessive markup overhead.

Search engines use filenames as a signal. Rename to descriptive names like 'team-photo.jpg'.

Why this matters

Most image filenames are non-descriptive (hash/IMG_X) — small SEO miss for Image Search ranking.
