What is lorem ipsum?

Scrambled Latin used as stand-in text since the 1500s, when a printer jumbled a passage from Cicero’s “De finibus bonorum et malorum” to make a type specimen. It has the rhythm of real writing without meaning anything, so people look at the design instead of reading the words.

When should I use it?

For layouts, wireframes, font tests and demo data, while the real words are not ready. Replace it before you publish: placeholder text left on a live page looks unfinished and gives search engines nothing to index.

How much text do I need?

A headline
5 to 10 words.
A card or teaser
1 or 2 sentences.
An article page
4 to 8 paragraphs, about 300 to 600 words.
