Best practices for better results
Image optimization works best when you choose the right balance between file size, visual quality, dimensions, format compatibility and privacy. These tips help you get a cleaner result.
- Start from the original image whenever possible.
- Review the output before publishing or deleting your original file.
- Use related tools like resize, convert or metadata removal when you need a more specific result.
- Choose the right format for the job: JPEG for photos, PNG for sharp graphics and WebP for modern websites.
Why 100 KB is the web's favourite number
100 KB is the unofficial standard for a well behaved web image: light enough to load instantly, big enough to look good. Email signatures, contact form uploads, CMS media limits and forum avatars all cluster around it. Most photos sized for screens, roughly 1200 to 1600 pixels wide, fit under 100 KB at quality 70 to 80 with no visible damage.
| Image | Fits under 100 KB? |
|---|---|
| Profile photo, 800 px | Yes, easily at high quality |
| Blog or hero image, 1200 to 1600 px | Yes, at quality 70 to 80 |
| Full resolution phone photo | Set a max width around 1600 px first |
Other size targets
Tighter limits live at 20 KB and 50 KB, looser ones at 200 KB, 500 KB and 1 MB. Any other number works in Compress Image to Size.
