The WebP format offers an excellent balance between visual quality and file size. Unlike traditional formats like JPEG or PNG, WebP (a modern technology
developed by Google) allows image sizes to be reduced by
up to 30–80% while preserving near-identical visual quality to the human eye.
Why is image optimization essential in modern web?
In a world where fast website loading is crucial for both user experience and SEO, using WebP has become a best practice. Lighter images mean:
- Faster page loads, even on mobile or slow networks,
- Better performance scores (Core Web Vitals),
- Positive impact on bounce rates and conversions,
- Higher ranking in Google search results.
The WebP format supports:
- Lossy and lossless compression (like JPEG/PNG),
- Transparency (alpha channel) like PNG,
- And even animation, like GIF.
Making it a versatile format for all your graphic needs.
More and more CMS platforms (WordPress, Shopify…), browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari…), and online tools now support WebP natively. It’s the ideal image format for the modern web.
