How to resize and compress images before uploading to WordPress
Shrink a photo before you upload it, so your pages stay fast.
Every image you upload to your website has a file size. The bigger that size, the longer your page takes to load — and slow pages lose visitors before they've read a word.
Resizing and compressing images before you upload them is one of the simplest things you can do to keep your site fast. It costs nothing, takes under a minute, and makes a real difference to how your site performs — both for visitors and in search results.
