How to compress images without losing too much quality

Large image files slow down pages, consume storage and make sharing harder. Good compression is about reducing unnecessary bytes while keeping the image visually useful.

Start with the right dimensions

If an image only appears at 1200 pixels wide, exporting it at 5000 pixels creates unnecessary data. Resize oversized images before you compress them.

Choose the right format

WebP is often a strong choice for web images. JPEG remains useful for photographs, while PNG is valuable when you need lossless output or transparency.

Compare before and after

Do not judge compression by a percentage alone. Check the actual file size and inspect important areas of the image. Our compressor lets you adjust quality and download the result locally.
