A step-by-step guide to reducing image file sizes using modern formats like WebP to speed up your website's load time and improve SEO.

Why Image Size Matters

Images make up over 60% of an average website's downloaded bytes. If your images are too large, your website will load slowly, driving visitors away and ruining your Google Search rankings.

The Magic of WebP

WebP is a modern image format created by Google. It provides superior lossless and lossy compression for images on the web. WebP lossless images are 26% smaller in size compared to PNGs.
