ShortPixel

ShortPixel is a high-powered compressor and optimizer that drastically reduces image file sizes so you can improve your website’s performance and SEO ranking.

Look, we know that people would rather look at images than read text (my self-awareness levels are through the roof).

And ShortPixel allows you to take advantage of high-quality images thanks to its advanced compression technology that reduces image sizes by up to 90%!

Whether we’re talking JPG, PNG, GIF, PDF, or WebP, ShortPixel makes sure your images are the best version of themselves.

ShortPixel gives you three compression options: Lossy, Glossy, and Lossless. 


With ShortPixel drastically reducing file size, you might worry that the quality of your images will take a hit.

But that’s not the case—image quality will be unaffected.

Don’t believe it? Try seeing the difference between these two images:



Here’s where things really get fun.

ShortPixel has two powerful WordPress plug-ins that can automatically optimize your images.



Both plug-ins can be installed directly into your WordPress Dashboard where you can easily manage the image reduction process.

The first plug-in is the ShortPixel Image Optimizer, which optimizes images automatically.



You can even configure this plug-in to compress past images and optimize your website history.

Next up is the ShortPixel Adaptive Images plug-in, which properly sizes, smart-crops, and optimizes images.

The Adaptive Image plug-in is for when images are larger than their placeholder (e.g. display a 500x500px image in a 100x100px placeholder).

By just optimizing the image, you won’t solve this kind of issue. That’s why you need the Adaptive Image plug-in.

Images are processed on the fly to accommodate each user’s viewport and served from ShortPixel’s CDN for maximum speed!

On top of that, the plug-in serves "next-gen" images (e.g. WebP) to the browsers that have such support and can also serve images in a "lazy-load" fashion.

At first glance, ShortPixel seems like a simple tool.

But once you dive in, you realize ShortPixel comes packed with a ton of features, from WordPress plug-ins to batch optimization, quick backups to powerful algorithms.

And if you’re an agency, you’ll really love ShortPixel because of its subaccount feature!

Your website is your baby.

But no one will ever take the time to get to know it if your page is buried in the search results or taking forever to load.

So do your site a solid and optimize those images.
