Benefits of High-Efficiency Compression

Reducing image file size is more than just meeting a requirement; it's about digital efficiency. Large images can slow down website loading speeds and consume unnecessary bandwidth. By using our tool, you ensure:

  • Privacy: Your images are processed and not stored on our servers longer than necessary.
  • Speed: Fast processing without the need for heavy desktop software like Photoshop.
  • Compatibility: We convert files into the standard JPG format, which is accepted everywhere.

PNG vs. JPG: Reaching the 20KB Target

PNG files are known for high quality and transparency but often have large file sizes. If you need to reach 20KB, converting your PNG to JPG is the smartest move. JPG uses "lossy" compression, which intelligently removes data that the human eye can't see, allowing the file size to drop significantly while keeping the photo looking great.

Pro Tip: If your compressed image is still over 20KB, try reducing the quality slider slightly further or resizing the dimensions of the original photo before uploading.
