Frequently asked questions

Who uses Compress Image?

Bloggers and content creators use it to speed up their WordPress sites before every post. Ecommerce sellers on Amazon, Etsy, and Shopify use it to optimize product photos for faster page loads and higher conversion rates. Real estate agents use it to reduce listing photo sizes for MLS uploads and client emails. Small business owners use it to prepare photos for their Google Business Profile and website. Teachers and students use it to shrink photos for school submissions and presentations. Web developers use it to optimize client-supplied images for website performance. Insurance adjusters use it to compress claim photos safely without uploading them to external servers.

How do I compress an image to under 100 KB?

Enter 100 in the 'Target file size' field and click Compress. The tool automatically finds the right quality level to hit your target. Results vary by image content — very detailed photos may not compress as far while staying visually acceptable.

How do I reduce image file size without losing quality?

Set quality to 80–85% for JPG — most images look identical to the original at this level while reducing file size by 50–70%. For PNG, switching to JPG format often gives the biggest reduction. The before/after comparison shows exactly what you're trading.

What's the difference between compressing JPG and PNG?

JPG compression is lossy — it discards some image data, which is why JPGs can be very small. PNG compression is lossless — it reorganizes data without losing any, so PNGs are larger but pixel-perfect. For photos, JPG is almost always better. For graphics with text or sharp edges, PNG is better.

About Compress Image

Large image files slow down websites, fill up email attachments, and take longer to share. Compression reduces file size by encoding image data more efficiently — at moderate settings, the visual difference is imperceptible.

This tool offers two modes: quality-based compression (set a percentage and see the result) and target-size compression (enter a maximum file size in KB and the tool finds the right quality level automatically). The before/after display shows exactly how much you've saved.

JPG compression is lossy — it discards some image data. PNG compression is lossless — it reorganizes data without losing any. WEBP supports both modes. For the smallest files, consider converting PNG to JPG or WEBP while compressing.
