Image Compressor – Reduce Image File Size

Large image files slow down websites, consume bandwidth, and frustrate users. Image compression reduces file size while maintaining acceptable visual quality, resulting in faster page loads and better user experiences. The Image Compressor by ToolfolioHub compresses images directly in your browser, giving you control over quality and dimensions while keeping your files private.

Whether you're optimizing photos for web, reducing storage costs, or improving website performance, this tool helps you achieve the perfect balance between file size and quality.

Why Compress Images?

Image compression offers multiple benefits:

  • Faster Loading: Smaller files load faster, improving user experience
  • Bandwidth Savings: Reduced data usage for mobile users
  • Better SEO: Faster sites rank higher in search results
  • Storage Savings: Reduced file sizes save hosting costs
  • Mobile Friendly: Faster loading on slower mobile connections

Key Features

1. Quality Control

Adjust compression quality from 0.1 (lowest quality, smallest size) to 1.0 (highest quality, larger size). Find the perfect balance for your needs.

2. Dimension Resizing

Set a maximum width to resize images. Larger images are automatically scaled down while maintaining aspect ratio.

3. Side-by-Side Preview

Compare original and compressed images side-by-side with file size information to evaluate quality vs. size trade-offs.

4. Browser-Based Processing

All compression happens in your browser:

  • Privacy: Files never leave your device
  • Speed: No upload/download delays
  • Security: Sensitive images stay private

5. Compression Statistics

See file size reduction percentage and actual size savings (e.g., "50% reduction" or "Reduced by 200 KB").

  • Use Appropriate Formats: JPEG for photos, PNG for graphics with transparency
