About this tool
Photos are the heaviest part of almost any website: a restaurant’s gallery, an online shop’s product pages or the images in a blog. Moving them from JPG to WEBP usually trims their size noticeably at comparable visual quality, which means faster pages, less mobile data for your visitors and better PageSpeed scores.
Drop your JPG files onto the upload area; WEBP is already selected. Leave “Lossless” off (it does not pay off for photos) and set the quality: 80 is a good starting point. If your photos come straight off a camera at thousands of pixels, reduce them under “Resize”, for example to 1600 px wide. Convert and download everything as a ZIP ready to upload to your site.
Photos are processed in your browser and never uploaded, which matters if they belong to clients or colleagues. Re-encoding removes EXIF data such as GPS location. Converting an already-compressed JPG to WEBP does not recover quality, so always start from the best version you have. Some versions of Safari cannot create WEBP; switch browsers if that happens.
Frequently asked questions
How much smaller does a photo get as WEBP?
At similar visual quality, a WEBP is typically 25–35% smaller than the JPG. If you also reduce the dimensions, the saving is far bigger.
What WEBP quality should I use for website photos?
Somewhere between 75 and 85 is a good balance for most photos. Check the result at full size and nudge it up if you see blotches in skies or skin.
Does WordPress accept WEBP images?
Yes, WordPress has allowed WEBP uploads since version 5.8 and current browsers display them without issue.
Is the location data in my photos removed?
Yes. The conversion does not copy EXIF metadata, so GPS location and camera details do not end up in the WEBP.
