Convert PNG to JPG: Reduce Website Loading Time
PNGs are great for quality. They are "lossless." But they are surprisingly heavy. A high-res photograph saved as a PNG might be 5MB. That same photo saved as a JPG might be 500KB.
That is a 90% reduction in size.
When to Switch
- Use PNG: If the image has text, a logo, or requires a transparent background.
- Use JPG: If the image is a photograph or realistic scene.
The Web Performance Cost
Google penalizes slow websites. If your homepage has a 5MB PNG banner, mobile users on 4G will bounce before it loads. Converting that banner to JPG makes the page load instantly.
How to Convert
- Select Converter: Go to Image Format Converter.
- Upload PNG: Drag your heavy file.
- To JPG: Select JPG as the output.
- Download: Replace the file on your website server.
