How to compress images without losing quality

Why image size matters

Large photos slow first paint and hurt Core Web Vitals. Smaller files load faster on mobile networks.

A simple workflow

1. Start from the highest-quality original you have.
2. Resize to the display size you actually need (hero vs thumbnail).
3. Compress with a quality setting around 70–85 for JPEG/WebP.
4. Prefer WebP when your audience browsers support it; keep PNG for sharp UI graphics with transparency.

What “quality” really means

Compression removes detail. The goal is not perfect pixel fidelity — it is “good enough at the size users see.” Zoomed 400% comparisons are misleading.

Use the Image Resizer first, then the Image Compressor. Keep a backup of the original file.
