Image Optimization

Using images in your article

You need to make sure that you choose the right image for what you are writing about. If you’re writing an informative article with lots of stats, consider using a chart to best illustrate your point.

Choosing a file name

As unimportant of a factor as it may seem, choosing the proper name for the image file is the first step in proper optimization for images.

Image size

You don’t want your image to be too large because then it will slow down the loading time of the page.

And page speed is extremely important when it comes to SEO and user experience.

Responsive Images

With more and more users clicking through websites on devices smaller than a computer monitor, the image should be responsive.

The latest version of WordPress will automatically make images responsive that way you don’t have to do any extra coding.
