Hello everyone, My new website is currently under development, but many of the original JPEG images are over 2MB each. For better page loading speed, the goal is to reduce the file size to under 100...

WebP is the format recommended by Google, which can compress image size effectively. With the same visual quality, WebP files are 25-35% smaller than JPEG files.
How to Compress ImageSize
Step 1: Import your JPEG image into Caesium.
Step 2: Select WebP under the Format options.
Step 3: Set the quality to between 75% and 85%.
Step 4: Optional: For images that are too large, set the width to 1920 pixels in the Resize section.
Finally, click Compress to start processing.
After compression, a 2MB JPEG file will become an 80–150KB WebP file with no noticeable loss in image quality. This method reduces the file size while maintaining image clarity.
Advantages
- High compression ratio, resulting in significantly smaller file sizes
- Maintains consistent visual quality after compression
- Fully compatible with all modern browsers
Disadvantages
- Some older software or lightweight viewers do not support the WebP format
- Setting the quality too low can cause noticeable image distortion
