Optimizing images reduces payload size, ensuring faster content delivery and better Core Web Vitals across our high-performance network.

Before You Begin

  • Images uploaded to your media library.

Optimizing Images

  1. Go to my.websitely.com and login to your account.
  2. Navigate to your site’s Site Tools > Optimization.
  3. Select Image Compression and click Run Scan.
  4. Click Optimize All to have our cloud workers process and compress your media assets into optimized formats (e.g., WebP).

Best Practices

  • Keep individual images under 200KB for hero sections.
  • Use responsive image sizing so mobile users don’t download desktop-sized assets.
