The Image → WebP Converter makes it simple to shrink your images into the modern WebP format for faster websites and smaller file sizes. Just drag and drop your images (JPG, PNG, or other common formats), choose your quality setting, and select optional scale variations. The tool runs in the cloud and gives you back optimized WebP files within seconds — no software install required.
You can convert a single image for a quick optimization, or upload multiple files at once and download them as a ready-to-use ZIP package. With options for scaling (from .5× up to 5×) and adjustable quality, you have control over balancing image clarity with performance gains.
Tips for Best Results
- Start with 80 quality — it’s a sweet spot for good visuals and small size. Lower if you need lighter pages.
- Use multiple scales if you’re preparing assets for responsive sites (e.g. 1×, 2×, and 3× for retina displays).
- Batch upload to save time — the converter can handle multiple images and give you one ZIP download.
- Check file sizes after conversion; even small reductions add up for image-heavy pages.
- Use WebP alongside fallback formats if you need to support older browsers.
Why WebP?
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that delivers high-quality visuals at a fraction of the file size compared to JPEG and PNG. Smaller images mean faster page loads, lower bandwidth costs, and better performance on mobile devices. Since Google and other search engines reward page speed, using WebP can also help with SEO rankings and overall site experience.
Most major browsers — including Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari — now support WebP, making it safe to use as your default format. For maximum compatibility, you can still provide fallback images (like JPEG or PNG) for older browsers while serving WebP to the majority of your visitors.
