Why reduce image file size?
Smaller image files are easier to store, share, and use online.
Faster website loading
Large images can contain significantly more data than is necessary for their intended display size. Compressing images can reduce the amount of data a browser needs to download, which can help improve page loading performance.
Smaller files for sharing
Smaller images are easier to attach to emails, upload to websites, send through messaging services, and store on your devices.
Save storage space
Compressing a large collection of images can reduce the amount of storage needed for photos, documents, website assets, and other image files.
Find the right balance between quality and file size
Higher compression generally produces a smaller file, but excessive compression can make visual artifacts more noticeable. The best setting depends on how the image will be used.
For websites and everyday sharing, moderate compression is often a useful starting point. Images that require very high visual quality may benefit from using a less aggressive compression setting.
The ideal balance depends on the image and how it will be used.
JPG, PNG and WebP compression
Different image formats behave differently when compressed.
JPG is commonly used for photographs and other images with many colors. Compression can significantly reduce file size, especially when some quality loss is acceptable.
PNG is useful for graphics, screenshots, and images that need transparency. PNG compression behaves differently from lossy formats such as JPG.
WebP supports both lossy and lossless compression and is commonly used for web images where smaller file sizes are important.
