Tips & benchmarks
- For photos, set quality to 80–85 to maintain a natural look while reducing size by ~70%, ideal for Indian websites with high-traffic photo galleries.
- PNG is ideal for images with transparency or flat colours; otherwise, convert to JPG or WebP for up to 50% smaller files, perfect for Indian e-commerce sites with product images.
- Use the Max Width setting to match your largest display size; a 4000 px photo displayed at 800 px can be compressed by 75% without visual loss, making it perfect for Indian websites with responsive designs.
- Compress all images in a ZIP to speed up uploads to CMS or cloud storage, and consider using UPI payments for easy and secure transactions.
- Check the 'Show difference' toggle to verify compression does not introduce artifacts; a 5-point PSNR is generally acceptable, ensuring your images look great on any device.
