Why Compress Photos for Your Website?
Unoptimized images are the number one cause of slow-loading websites. By compressing your photos before uploading them, you can drastically reduce page load times, which directly improves user engagement, lowers bounce rates, and boosts your Google search rankings. Our free tool uses advanced browser-based compression to shrink file sizes by up to 90% while maintaining visual quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best format for website images?
WebP is generally the best format for the web as it provides superior compression compared to JPG and PNG. Our tool can automatically output highly optimized WebP images.
Will my image look blurry after compression?
We use smart, perceptually lossless compression algorithms. If you keep the quality slider around 80-85%, the file size drops significantly, but the human eye can rarely spot the difference.
What is the ideal file size for a web image?
Aim to keep hero images (large banners) under 100-150KB, and smaller in-article images or thumbnails under 20-50KB.
