Website SEO image compressor online free thingy.

[Mr. Ingram's Computer Repair & Shoppe]

There was a link here to a website SEO checker thing, and it showed my images were way to big and had a link to download the "optimized" version.... Anyone know what free SEO site that was?

And yes, @Barcelona I am making my website go faster... So you can scroll up and down all day long.

Hi look for the Wp Smush plugin in WP. Works well by optimizing your images.
There are others, but that does the job fine.

There are a lot of other factors to make your site faster.
One main component is your server where it's hosted. Don't go too cheap.

Regards,

https://tools.pingdom.com and www.smallseotools.com is what your looking for I believe...

I've mentioned on here many times the fact that I hate scrolling!
Any more than one roll of the mouse wheel and I'm gone!
The obvious exception to this rule is of course "Aunty Technibble!" and since I was shown the quick navigation buttons, it's fine.

you should make your images smaller then.

also you could investigate http compression on the server:

Noooot really,

You put your website into it's search and it loaded everything.

Then it was like "hey, your image size & compression is wrong, download the best size and compression here:

and it gave a link to that image converted, resized, and compressed exactly to how the website wants it.

If you really want to compress your images, just use https://tinypng.com or https://tinyjpg.com.

Thats what I use to compress all my images with no degradation in quality.

no no no no, like this site, kept the proper aspect ratio and everything, but it was able to see that an image I have was 1400 x 800 and the CSS was making it display at 350 x XXX so it gave a link to the compressed and shrunken version to fit the site. It did it without me having to do any "real work"

I think @Bryce W posted it.. But I can't find it.

Be careful. So often there is a trade off between compression and clarity (lossy).

I'm an old Corel user from way back (instead of Photo Shop). It has compression features available which I use on web and email work. Easy to take a 3 MB picture down to 100K without much loss. There is a ton of online compressor tools.

I have photoshop CC, but it'd take forever to look up each image and find out best resolution to size them to...

Ahhh - If you are looking for something to swoop in and "compress all" I'm afraid you may be disappointed.

Size (x pixels X x pixels) isn't a question it's compression. 40:1 is about the max that I'll take something that I want to maintain good clarity on.

I worry less and less about picture compression as the web and people's connections get so much faster and faster.

I don't care much, as it loads within 3 seconds for me, but some people here.... @Barcelona .... thinks that it takes WAYYYY to long

You've got to consider where he lives. His Internet was just upgraded from a string between two tin cans.

(Just fun'in - Love all you Aussies!)

Hmmm, I think this is the least of your worries. Here is my media library for the .biz and I don't think I have them optimized lol.

^ This is the answer to your question. 2 of the same images but of different sizes.

Your site uses bootstrap (lib/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css) so I dont suppose using the actual bootstrap CSS would work for you to resize your images? You know, <img class="img-responsive" src="img/yourimage.jpg" alt="My Image">

still takes time... But this thread is also taking time at this point...

I just wish I remembered that site, it had everything all ready to go, all I had to do was save image and upload it to CPanel.

Define "takes time".

It depends how your doing it.

If you have 20 pictures on a page and wanted to add the bootstrap function to 'each' one, one at a time, then yes that takes time. But, if you do it the smart and easy way, it takes 2 seconds.

Load your page into notepad. Select Edit > Replace

Find what: <img
Replace with: <img class="img-responsive"

File > Save -- upload, done.

Your site does struggle a bit on mobile which is a big deal these days.

No, not yet @Diggs
That's a major infrastructure upgrade that will take years of design and planning before we see it implemented!
That is if the Govt can set aside the $50 billion for the latest in "Baked Bean Can Design" and fully compliant "Jute" string for the runs between nodes!

Also have to find a way to keep the wildlife from eating the lines.
