How to Compress Images for Faster Websites Without Quality Loss
High-resolution photography and uncompressed graphics are the primary cause of slow web page loading. Google's Core Web Vitals heavily penalize slow-loading hero images under the Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) metric.
Compress your JPEG, PNG, and WebP images safely in your browser with the Burnjet Image Compressor.
Lossy vs. Lossless Compression #
- Lossless Compression: Removes redundant metadata and non-visible color data while preserving 100% of pixel fidelity (ideal for PNG icons, logos, and screenshots).
- Lossy Compression: Selectively discards imperceptible high-frequency visual details to achieve dramatic 70% to 90% reductions in file size (ideal for photographic JPEGs and WebP hero banners).
