Frequently asked questions

What is lorem ipsum, actually?

Scrambled Latin derived from a passage of Cicero's De finibus bonorum et malorum, written in 45 BC — words altered and reordered until they mean nothing while still looking like language. Printers have used it as filler since the 1500s; the modern digital version spread with typesetting software in the 1980s.

Why use meaningless text instead of real content?

Because readable words hijack the review. Show a layout with real sentences and people edit the copy; show it with lorem ipsum and they judge the type, spacing and hierarchy — which is what a layout review is for. The text has prose-like shape (varied word and sentence lengths, commas, capitals) so the layout behaves as it will with real content.

Why does it start with the same sentence every time?

The opening "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet…" is the recognition signal — one glance tells any reviewer this is placeholder, not forgotten draft copy shipping to production. Untick the option when you want fully random filler, for example to avoid every mockup starting identically.

How much text do I need for a realistic mockup?

Match the real content's order of magnitude: a card description is 15–25 words, a meta description about 25, a blog intro 40–60, an article section two to four paragraphs. The word mode exists exactly for the character-budgeted cases — generate the count your design allocates and see whether the layout survives.

Is lorem ipsum bad for SEO if it ships by accident?

Yes — pages of placeholder text signal an unfinished site to search engines and users alike, and it happens embarrassingly often. The classic opening is your safety net: search your codebase for "lorem ipsum" before every release, and the recognisable phrase makes stray filler findable in seconds.

Is anything generated on a server?

No — the generator runs in your browser and the page keeps working offline. Each click of Regenerate produces a fresh arrangement; the same options can give different text by design, since variety is what filler is for.
