1 easy way to make your blog load faster by reducing your image file size

It’s been said that a picture is worth a thousand words….and I’d certainly agree!  The challenge you have as a blogger, however, is to ensure the pictures load as quickly as possible.  After all, amazingly enough, the entire world is NOT on a cable modem.  :)

Luckily, this is quite simple to do!  And instead of giving you a dozen tools to simplify the job, I’ll just point you to (drumroll please!)

MyImager.com

This is the site I always use when I need to squooshilate my images.  Generally before optimizing, they’re around 50K or so in size….after optimizing, they’re only between 18-22K.  I generally set my optimization to be 90 or so.

If you include a bunch of images, this could be quite the time-saver indeed!

Other resources to learn about squooshing your image sizes include:

Hope the above is useful.

ThankYouVeryMuch!
