Use the right strategy
Reducing image size usually means resizing dimensions, compressing image data, or choosing a better format. Start with the least destructive option that meets your upload limit.
How to reduce size
- Resize oversized images
If dimensions are much larger than needed, resize first.
- Compress a copy
Use around 80% quality as a balanced starting point.
- Compare visually
Check faces, text, product edges, and fine detail.
