Recommended Sizes

Deploying appropriate pixel dimensions and compression rates for distinct distribution channels preserves image crispness while preventing slow transfer speeds:

  • Websites & Blogs: 1200 × 675 px or 1140 × 651 px at 80%–85% quality. This strikes the ideal equilibrium between sharp typography/fine details and rapid loading times that satisfy Core Web Vitals.
  • Social Media Feeds: 1080 × 1080 px (square) or 1080 × 1350 px (portrait) at 85% quality to prevent aggressive automated recompression by social media platforms.
  • Email Attachments & Newsletters: 600 px width maximum at 70%–75% quality to ensure messages stay well below standard 10 MB inbox attachment ceilings.
  • Cloud Storage & Archival Records: Original resolution at 90% quality, preserving essential forensic clarity while shaving off up to 40% of superfluous uncompressed metadata.

FAQ

What is the difference between image resizing and image compression?
Resizing alters the physical pixel dimensions (e.g., downscaling 4000 × 3000 px to 1200 × 900 px). Compression reduces the byte size of those pixels by eliminating redundant color data and discrete cosine transform coefficients. Combining both produces maximum byte savings.

What quality level is recommended for blog posts?
A quality setting between 0.80 and 0.85 typically reduces file size by 60% to 75% with zero perceptible loss in photographic sharpness to the human eye on modern screens.

Does compressing JPEG remove EXIF metadata?
Yes. Because the image is drawn onto an HTML5 Canvas and re-exported, unnecessary camera telemetry, GPS coordinates, and hardware serial numbers are stripped automatically, providing an extra layer of privacy.

Is there a limit on how many JPEGs I can compress?
No. You can compress as many files as you need without signup, subscription, or daily quota limitations.
