Bigger is not better.
At least, not when it comes to the resolution of your website images.
Improperly sized images are one of the biggest mistakes we see people make on a site. While beautiful high-resolution photos are great for print, uploading these large files will decrease website load time, decreasing user experience.
Additionally, if your images are too large, it can bog down your site and make it harder to rank well in search results.
The solution?
Package your images in a small, shareable size while still maintaining quality.
We put together a tutorial showing three easy ways to optimize your images with free and low-cost tools.
The main tools we will cover are Storytailor, BeFunky, and TinyJPG. We will also walk through how to use Canva for image resizing.
