Why image speed matters for Shopify
Online shoppers expect pages to load in under 3 seconds. Product images are usually the largest assets on a Shopify store.
Compressing them is the quickest way to improve load time and keep shoppers browsing.
Workflow for Shopify store owners
Compress each product image before uploading it through the Shopify admin. Use the Balanced preset for a good file-size-to-quality ratio.
For hero banners and collection headers, try the Max preset to squeeze out extra savings.
Impact on conversions
Faster page loads lead to lower bounce rates and higher conversion rates. Compressed images directly contribute to this speed improvement.
