How this image compressor works
The tool reads each image locally in your browser, creates a new version based on your selected setting, and compares the new file size with the original. If the original is already smaller, the result card tells you to keep the original instead of downloading a larger file.
Using images on a website?
A smaller image can help a page load faster, but image compression is only one part of website performance. Fonts, scripts, plugins, layout shifts, caching, hosting, and theme structure can still affect a page after images are optimized.
If you are fixing a slow WordPress site, iBigWeb’s Website Cost Estimator can help compare whether the project looks closer to cleanup, performance support, source-level repair, technical SEO support, or a rebuild.

Compression FAQ
Why did my new image become larger?
Some images are already optimized, especially small logos and existing WebP or PNG files. When that happens, the best choice is usually to keep the original unless you specifically need a different format.
Will a transparent image stay transparent?
Yes, when you export as PNG or WebP. If you choose JPG, transparent areas are filled with white because JPG does not support transparency.
Can this tool remove a solid background?
No. This compressor preserves the pixels in the file. If a black or white background is already part of the image, compression will not remove it.
