Compress Photos to Speed Up Your Website

Images are usually the heaviest thing on a web page, and unoptimized uploads are the most common reason a site scores poorly on PageSpeed. Compressing before upload fixes it at the source.

Drop your images, set a max dimension and quality, and download optimized versions — with the exact size reduction shown per file. All local, no upload.

    FAQ

    What settings should I start with?

    For content images, 1600px max dimension at 75–80% quality is a strong default. Hero images can go 2400px. Adjust per use and re-run — it's free.

    Why compress before upload if my CMS optimizes images?

    CMS optimization helps, but it can't recover time lost uploading 8MB originals, storage bloat, or plugins' processing limits. Lean sources make everything downstream better.

    JPG or WebP?

    This tool outputs JPG for universal compatibility. Most CMSs auto-convert lean JPGs to WebP/AVIF on delivery — you get the best of both.
