Converting Images to Enhance Success

Image size contributes heavily to page load time, and longer page load times are bad for your site and your users. I took a photo of with my phone, and then converted it to a few different formats. Here are the results:

The original image, as taken from the phone
Image Size7.3 MB
Percent size of original image 100.00%
The image, reduced in size from 3024x4032 to 750x1000
Image Size420 KB
Percent size of original image 10.14%
The image, as taken from the phone, directly converted to .webp format
Image Size2.1 MB
Percent size of original image 28.38%
The image, reduced in size from 3024x4032 to 750x1000 and converted to .webp format
Image Size240 KB
Percent size of original image 3.24%

To a human, there is very little between the original image and the minimized image. The difference is only in the file size. The original image is 7.3 MB, and the minimized image is 420 KB. That`s a 17:1 ratio!
