When the Internet first came out we were faithfully waiting for the slow loading of web pages and photos… Inch after inch.
But now we start typing a new URL into our browser (#ByeFelicia) if loading takes longer than a second.
Increasing your SEO rankings and stopping your visitors from leaving you with optimized site photos.
And using ShortPixel is the easiest way to optimize photos.
ShortPixel is a high-powered compressor and optimizer that dramatically reduces the size of image files so that you can boost the performance and SEO rating of your website.
Look, we understand that people would like to look at pictures rather than read text (my self-awareness levels are through the roof).
And thanks to its advanced compression technology that reduces image sizes by up to 90 percent, ShortPixel lets you take advantage of high-quality images!
If we’re talking about JPG, PNG, GIF, PDF, or WebP, ShortPixel ensures that the best version of your photos is yours.
Three compression options are provided by ShortPixel: Lossy, Glossy, and Lossless.
You may worry that the quality of your photos would take a hit with ShortPixel dramatically reducing file size.
But that’s not the case-it won’t impact picture quality.
Don’t you think so? Try to see the distinction between these two pictures:
Here’s where it really makes things interesting.
ShortPixel has two strong plugins for WordPress that can optimize your photos automatically.
You can install both plugins directly into your WordPress Dashboard, where the image reduction process can be easily handled.
The ShortPixel Image Optimizer, which automatically optimizes pictures, is the first plugin.
In order to compact past photos and refine your website history, you can also customize this plugin.
Optimize the images using optimization technology from ShortPixel. This means compressing the pictures at a rate of up to 90%. What does that imply? It means that a picture taken with a smartphone, weighing ~3MB, would weigh ~300KB “magically” On ShortPixel’s homepage, take a peek at a few instances!
It works with images from the global ShortPixel CDN. It implies that the photos will be supported by a fast and secure server no matter what hosting plan you have. And the photos from your website will be indexed as coming from you.
Depending on the visitor viewport, it only serves adequately sized photos. So, if a visitor opens a smartphone on your website, they won’t get the big picture a laptop user might have.
