How to Compress Images Without Losing Quality
Image compression reduces file size so pages load faster and files are easier to share. The goal is not always the smallest file; it is the best balance between visual quality and size.
A simple compression workflow
- Open the Image Compressor.
- Add your JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, or AVIF images.
- Start with a quality setting around 75–85 percent.
- Download the compressed files and review them before publishing.
Which quality setting should you use?
For photographs, medium-high quality often produces a large size reduction with little visible change. For screenshots, text, and logos, compare the preview carefully because sharp edges and small text can show compression artifacts.
Compress images for a website
Resize an image to the display dimensions you actually need before compressing it. A very large image that is displayed in a small card still costs visitors extra download time.
