02Why it matters

Heavy images cost you clicks.Light ones help win them back.

Images are often the heaviest thing on a page. Trim them and your pages load sooner, your Core Web Vitals get a fairer shot, and fewer paid clicks leave before the page appears.

What heavy images do
  • 01
    Slow landing pages

    Your ad budget pays for the click. A slow hero image decides whether they stay.

  • 02
    Weaker Core Web Vitals

    A big hero image is a common cause of slow Largest Contentful Paint, which Google uses as a page experience signal.

  • 03
    Risky upload tools

    Many free compressors send your files to their servers. Not ideal for unreleased campaigns or client work.

What Pacing Compressor does
  • 01
    Smaller files, same look

    WebP by default, with AVIF, PNG and JPEG when you need them.

  • 02
    Private by design

    Compression runs on your device. Your images never leave the browser tab, and camera and location data are removed from every file you download.

  • 03
    Check before you ship

    Drag the split on every image to compare it with the original before you download.

03Use cases

Every page that sellsdeserves lighter images.

Pacing rule of thumb

Give every image a weight budget before it goes live. These are the budgets we aim for on client sites.

WhereWhy it mattersFormatAim for
Ad landing pages The hero is the first thing a paid visitor waits for. Keep it light. WebP < 200 KB
Product and shop pages Grids of product shots add up fast, especially on mobile data. WebP < 100 KB
Blog and SEO content Articles with lots of images stay quick to load and quick to crawl. WebP / AVIF < 150 KB
Logos and icons Brand marks keep clean edges and transparency. No fuzzy logos. PNG / WebP < 30 KB

06 Why Pacing

Built by a marketing team that lives in page speed.

Why we say best

In September 2026 we compared the free online compressors people use most: TinyPNG, Squoosh, Compressor.io, iLoveIMG, ShortPixel, Optimizilla and Kraken. Pacing Compressor is the only one that does all of this at once:

  • Compresses a batch of up to 20 images, 10 MB each
  • Never uploads them: the work happens in your browser
  • Outputs WebP, AVIF, PNG or JPEG
  • Shows a before and after on every image, with the saving
  • Removes camera and location data from what you download
  • No account, no watermark, no daily credits

Squoosh is private too but converts one image at a time. The others upload your files to their servers. Smallest file is not the only test: at the same visual quality, encoders win on some formats and lose on others, so compare before you download.
