The online image optimizer, Optimizilla, produces great-looking photos with the lowest file sizes. For me, the big up front expense is worth it if my sites load faster. Each image on a site usually has several thumbnail sizes so you might think you only have 2,000 images, but when you optimize say 6 thumbnails for each image, that’s 7 x 2,000 = 14,000 images to optimize. The price is good too, but the cost does add up if you choose to opimize thumbnails. The best part is you can choose to convert images to the WebP format which is the latest format – images load even faster.

Even though I’ve optimized images all along, ShortPixel is shaving off an additional 30% on all images (on average). I just deployed it on all my niche sites (including Fatstacks) on July 16, 2019. This is the BEST image optimizer I’ve ever used. : Then I need change the size of several images or graphics at one time, I use this.

I strongly recommend this service if you want to improve image speed. I’ve optimized all existing images and new images as well as chose to convert images to WebP format.

Shortpixel: As of July 2019, I started using ShortPixel and it’s BY FAR the best image optimizer I’ve ever used.

Take a look at some of the best online image optimizing software that work like magic. You can increase the speed at which your website and images load by reducing your image size without suffering from loss of quality. This is of some concern since 53% of online visitors will leave your website if it takes more than 3 seconds to load. However, a common problem with high-resolution images is that they have unnecessarily huge files that take a lot of time to load. Unsurprisingly, the better the images, the more engagement you can expect to have. But that tends to happen when your picture is of low-quality, or is blurry and unappealing.Ĭelebrity chefs Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsay, Nigella Lawson, and David Chang understand this better than anyone, and with millions of followers on their Instagram accounts - which feature not just photos of their recipes, but pictures of dine-outs and candid personal photos -have successfully embraced the power of pictures to market their brands. However, sometimes it comes as a nasty shock when nobody likes our photo.
