Overview:
Use the Image Compress with Squeezeimg extension to optimize the size of your site’s images, speed up page loading, free up storage space on the server, and improve your ranking in search engines like Google, Yandex, etc.
The Image Compress with Squeezeimg extension uses features of the Squeezeimg Image Optimizer, including through the use of a CDN server. You can compress/convert images without visible quality loss or with some loss for quick reduction of image sizes.
How does it work?
Install the Image Compress with Squeezeimg extension on your website.
You DO NOT NEED to install ANY OTHER extensions or libraries!!!
Also, register your Squeezeimg account (https://squeezeimg.com) and generate an API key to use on your site. You can use 1000 images per month FOR FREE, or you’ll need to pay for any Squeezeimg Image Optimizer plan to process more images.
Then, the Image Compress extension with Squeezeimg will do all the image optimization for you!
Fast image compression and conversion without visible quality loss using the Squeezeimg service. This feature minimizes the size of all your images and increases the loading speed of your websites and apps. On average, images are compressed by 50–80%, and website or app pages load much faster.
You can use the extension to compress images of any size and the most popular formats—PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, SVG, BMP, TIFF.
The extension also allows you to convert images to webP, AVIF, and jp2 formats. After conversion, your images are reduced by 50% compared to the original images.
And you can apply compression/conversion only to specific image folders. This helps effectively use the image limit.
With one API key, you can compress and convert up to 1000 images per month FOR FREE.
If that’s not enough, you can choose and pay for the appropriate Squeezeimg Image Optimizer plan (check all pricing at https://squeezeimg.com/pricing).
You can use Lazy Load as an additional way to reduce page load time and improve overall website performance.
Lazy Load delays the loading of ALL your images, not just the catalog images. For example, logos, cms, modules, themes, etc.
Additionally, with this extension, you can create a complete sitemap with images in XML file format in seconds and upload it to Google Search Console, Yandex.Webmaster.
This allows search engines—Google, Yandex—to quickly find and crawl all the images on your site, including newly added or updated ones.
Thus, it improves your site’s ranking and enhances its SEO.
If you want to automatically compress/convert your images, you can set up a CRON job.
This feature allows you to process images at a specified time automatically and save you time.
Apply the Image Compress with Squeezeimg extension and:
- Increase the loading speed of your site/app and improve SEO ranking.
- Reduce disk space usage and improve the site/app performance.
- Enhance customer loyalty by speeding up your page load times.
