2. Use the right type of images.
there are lots of types of images like png, jpeg, SVG, GIF, and many more
but the thing is which type of images make your site faster and look cool?
A jpeg is a type of image file that is frequently used for real-world photography, and images with a lot of colors, shades, and highlights.
A png is a type of image file that is best used for icons, logos, and images that have transparent backgrounds. You can also use png for complex real-world photos, but you'll end up with a large file size that contributes to your slow site speed.
so thing is that which file we choose? we will suggest you upload both types of photos and see the output of both which looks better choose a smaller size of images.
3. Resize images
there are lots of online options or software available to resize images
One way to decrease image file size is to make your image smaller.
Squarespace recommends uploading images between 100 and 2500 pixels wide. Images larger than 2500 pixels wide are unnecessary and Squarespace cautions that large images take too much time to load.
generally, we upload 1200 to 1300 pixels images.
4. Check your image file name correctly.
when you save the wrong name of the file it affects the SEO. also take the perfect image name according to your image for example if the image is for a house then the name of the file is like home.jpg or home.png. also, choose the shortest name of the file.
5. Compress the image.
when you save the image successfully then time for compressing of image. must know that the original image and compressed image have the same look not looks for any big differences.
- Chose the perfect size of the image.
- Mostly use JPEG image types.
- Use the proper compression to reduce the file size.

- create a proper Name according to your photo.
After all the topics finally, you upload your images or photos. keep in mind if you decrease your image size is too small compared to the original size it will affect your website and makes it too slow.
