This measure is expressed by two numbers, for example, <em>1024 \u00d7 768<\/em> (where the first is the number of pixel columns, and the second is the number of pixel rows).<\/p><p>Resizing an image for the web means <strong>reducing its width and height<\/strong>, which will also end up reducing its file size.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/1\/image-dimensions-width-and-height-e1547059241783.png\" alt=\"Image Dimensions Width And Height\" class=\"wp-image-927506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/1\/image-dimensions-width-and-height-e1547059241783.png 800w, https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/1\/image-dimensions-width-and-height-e1547059241783-274x195.png 274w, https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/1\/image-dimensions-width-and-height-e1547059241783-768x547.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><p>When the size of an image is reduced, the photo editor of your choice will automatically remove the unnecessary pixel information and change the dimension of the file.<\/p><p>So we can define resizing as dealing with the physical dimensions of an image.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Determine the Right Size for an Image?<\/h3><p>To get your images ready to be uploaded on the web, you should make sure they have the right height and width for the content area of the page where you\u2019ll place them.<\/p><p>It\u2019s very important to figure out in advance <strong>how wide the content area of your web page is<\/strong>: to save resources and page load time, always avoid uploading images wider than that portion of the page.<\/p><p>There are several tools that allow you to assess the right width of your content area. The quickest ones are the following:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>From the browser (be it Chrome, Firefox or Safari), you can right-click on any page element and choose <em>Inspect Elemen<\/em>t to open Developers Tools.

There\u2019s not really a tool better than others when you need to change the dimensions of a file: the important thing is to locate the resizing feature, add your desired width and let the tool do its job!<\/p><p>Here are a few suggestions about resizing tools you can use:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Photoshop<\/strong>: the most famous photo editing software<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>GIMP<\/strong>: very similar to Photoshop, it\u2019s a free image editor software<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>IrfanView<\/strong>: free image editor software for Windows<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>High Quality Photo Resizer<\/strong>: free image editor software for Windows<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Preview app<\/strong>: the built-in solution for every version of macOS and OS X<\/li><\/ul><p>If you prefer <strong>online<\/strong> image resizing tools, here are a few you can try:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/squoosh.app\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Squoosh.app<\/a>: free online tool by Google<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.picmonkey.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Picmonkey.com<\/a>: premium online tool, free trial available<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.picmonkey.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fotor.com<\/a>: freemium, also available as a mobile app<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.befunky.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BeFunky.com<\/a>: free tool, also available as a mobile app<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/pixlr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pixlr.com<\/a>: free, also available as a mobile app<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.picozu.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Picozu.com<\/a>: free, it also supports SVG image files<\/li><\/ul><div id=\"om-xwmxyufhhr3rxywiohez-holder\"><\/div>\n\t<script>(function (d, u, ac) {\n\t\t\tvar s = d.createElement('script')\n\t\t\ts.type = 'text\/javascript'\n\t\t\ts.src = 'https:\/\/a.omappapi.com\/app\/js\/api.min.js'\n\t\t\ts.async = true\n\t\t\ts.dataset.user = u\n\t\t\ts.dataset.campaign = ac\n\t\t\td.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(s)\n\t\t})(document, 20440, 'xwmxyufhhr3rxywiohez')<\/script><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choosing the Right Image Format<\/h2><p>Once the dimensions of your image file are resized, it\u2019s time to give them a name!<br>Choosing the right image format is important to keep your pages light and fast.<\/p><p>Website graphics are often originally built in the <strong>SVG format<\/strong> (Scalable Vector Graphics files): they use an XML-based text format that describes the image and gives directions about its display.<br>Since they rely on text to be described, SVG files can be scaled to different sizes without losing quality: they can be defined as <strong>resolution-independent<\/strong>.<\/p><p>Due to this characteristic, web designers prefer to build their graphics in SVG, so they can later resize them to fit different designs in the future.<br>The three most suitable image formats for the web are:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>.jpg<\/li>\n\n<li>.png<\/li>\n\n<li>.gif<\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">JPEG<\/h3><p>This format is best used for non-flat images, like photographic images. It\u2019s not suitable for vectors or images containing text and it doesn\u2019t support transparencies. JPEG images can be compressed quite easily and their file size is suitable for web pages.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PNG<\/h3><p>If, on the other hand, you\u2019re dealing with illustrations or with an export from a vector file, PNG is the most appropriate solution. Unlike JPEGs, PNGs make full use of transparency. Moreover, this format handles hues differently, supporting more homogeneous shading and richer image information. For this reason, it usually generates larger file sizes: its use is suggested only if you need to keep transparency.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">GIF<\/h3><p>Unlike JPEG, GIFs can only export images containing up to 256 colors. If the original image contains a higher number of colors, the loss of quality will be significant. The GIF format supports transparency and multiple frames, so nowadays it\u2019s mostly used for creating animated GIFs.<\/p><div id=\"om-ulrdquoprwqcywqbbgci-holder\"><\/div>\n\t<script>(function (d, u, ac) {\n\t\t\tvar s = d.createElement('script')\n\t\t\ts.type = 'text\/javascript'\n\t\t\ts.src = 'https:\/\/a.omappapi.com\/app\/js\/api.min.js'\n\t\t\ts.async = true\n\t\t\ts.dataset.user = u\n\t\t\ts.dataset.campaign = ac\n\t\t\td.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(s)\n\t\t})(document, 20440, 'ulrdquoprwqcywqbbgci')<\/script><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Everything You Need to Know About Image Optimization in WordPress<\/h2><p>In this article you learned:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The definitions of image dimensions and file size<\/li>\n\n<li>What is image resizing and how to determine the right size for your images<\/li>\n\n<li>Which kind of tools you should use to resize your images<\/li>\n\n<li>Which file format you should choose for your images<\/li><\/ul><p>Now that you know everything about reducing file size, it\u2019s time to go ahead and learn other tricks about image optimization:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/blog\/compress-image-for-web\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How To Compress Your Images?<\/a><\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/blog\/lazyloading\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Why You Should Use Lazy Loading For Your Images<\/a><\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/blog\/imagify\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Image Optimization With Imagify: The Definitive WordPress Plugin To Optimize Your Images<\/a><\/li><\/ul><p>You should also take a look at the list of the <a href=\"https:\/\/wp-rocket.me\/blog\/best-image-optimization-plugins-wordpress\/\">best image optimization plugins for WordPress<\/a>!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Understanding how to correctly identify the size of your images and how to resize them is fundamental to boost the performance of your website.<br \/>\nA fast and optimized web page always contains images which have been previously resized and compressed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9832,"featured_media":1347388,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"kia_subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-927497","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-wordpress-cache"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Resize Your Images And Boost Your Site: The Best Tips &amp;
