Why Convert JPG to WebP? Faster Web Performance
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google specifically for the web. It provides superior compression compared to older formats like JPG and PNG, allowing for much smaller file sizes with the same visual quality.
Converting JPG to WebP is one of the most effective ways to speed up your website. Smaller images load faster, use less bandwidth, and improve SEO scores, particularly Google's Core Web Vitals (LCP).
