Mass Compressing Images in Webflow
Webflow does not have a built-in feature to compress images in bulk. However, you can compress images before importing them into a Webflow project using third-party tools or image optimization software. Here's how you can compress images in bulk before importing them into Webflow:
- Choose an image compression tool or software that fits your needs. Popular options include TinyPNG, Optimizilla, and Kraken.io.
- Organize your images in a folder on your computer.
- Use the chosen image compression tool to batch compress the images in that folder.
- Once the images are compressed, follow the steps mentioned in the previous section to import the compressed images into your Webflow project without changing the filename/URL.
By compressing images before importing them into Webflow, you can reduce their file size without compromising on quality. This helps improve website performance in terms of loading speed, which is a crucial factor for better user experience and SEO.
