Optimize Images & Photos for a Faster WordPress Website

Offered through Skillshare

About this course

Every website needs cool images. It's the visual element that makes them all look awesome.

We are all trying to avoid a slow website though, that turns visitors away and is awful for our SEO score, our chances of showing up in Google searches. So how do we keep the image quality high, but keep the file size low? You can find out here.

As a professional graphic designer I will show you how to find the speed of your site, and then how to find out the ideal size for every photo. You just need small image files and here you will find out how to do this in Photoshop and your pre-installed laptop photo program.

When the file sizes are small there will also be one extra little tip, using a program called shortpixel.com and this can make your site speed even faster!

This course is perfect for:

- Beginners - If you are new to Wordpress/website design you can learn the very simple basics to improve your new site. - Experienced Website designers - Those of you looking for extra little tips to speed up your super slow site.
