ShortPixel
Compress and optimize your images with ShortPixel
ShortPixel is a WordPress image optimization plugin that compresses and converts images to modern formats like WebP and AVIF to improve website speed and SEO. It supports lossy, lossless, and glossy compression modes for JPEGs, bulk optimization of entire media libraries, and background processing via cron jobs or WP-CLI. The tool integrates with popular WordPress plugins like WooCommerce, NextGEN Gallery, and WP Offload Media, and handles all optimization in the cloud to minimize server load.
Images are uploaded and processed via ShortPixel's cloud-based optimization engine, which compresses and converts them to efficient formats and delivers them back to the WordPress media library.
