Resize Before Upload

WordPress creates multiple thumbnail sizes from every upload. Resize large source images first so the generated thumbnails are not bloated.

Use WebP For Native Performance

WordPress supports WebP natively. Convert images to WebP before uploading for smaller media files.

Clean Filenames Help SEO

Rename images before uploading. A file named blue-widget-product-photo.webp helps search engines understand the content.
