Compress Image for Blog Post

Blog images should load quickly without looking soft or broken in the article layout. A smaller file is often enough to improve both upload speed and page performance.

Quick answer

To compress an image for a blog post, open the Compress Image tool, upload the image, create a smaller version, and compare it before downloading. If the image is larger than the article layout needs, resize it too. The work runs locally in your browser, and Confiles does not upload or store your file.
