"Honey, I Shrunk the Kid's Photos!"

Images such as unedited digital camera photos may take up to a few minutes to load and show in browsers. The reason is simply because they are way too big in file size. The odd is, you can reduce their file sizes by up to 50% without loosing much visual resolution at all.

The end result? Your images look the same yet load much faster than ever!

Some of the graphics software allow you to do this from within its program. However, using these programs, images in JPEG (ending with .jpg or .jpeg) format can only be reduced in file size by reducing their visual sizes. If you do not want to do that, you need an image optimizer which will do the job nicely for you.

The best place to do this online is OptiView (formerly GIFWizard). We highly recommend it because we use its service ourselves. See a sample image reduction for this image - can you tell the difference?



Before reduction
5,898 bytes
after reduction

After reduction
2,998 bytes (smaller by 49%!)

You can find out how much you can speed up the image loading by using the following tool. Just enter your site URL in the following form and OptiView's free and powerful scan engine will check the images on your site's first 10 pages. It then tells you which images need to be optimized and how much they can be optimized.



Bad news! They changed their policies after we got in. Before new customers can sign up with purchased tokens for as little as $10 to optimize 20 images. Now you can still purchase tokens but only after signing up with one of the expensive packages.

We are looking for other similar services but less expensive. We will update this page once we find one that is affordable for small businesses. If you know any, please let us know by contacting us using this online email form.
