🤖 Image compression to improve site performance

If you produce content on a website or if you are a web developer you have to know these tools below to improve page load performance. An image with too many bytes can hurt.

Some CMS already do the optimization for you, but it is worth checking, if the image is too big use these sites that reduce some bytes and preserve the quality of the image. Your SEO will thank you!

🔥 Others

We brought some sites that can inspire you in your projects. The repositories on Github under the name awesome-xxxx have a lot of cool stuff, the community contributes a lot of links, the most famous is from Sindre Sorhus, first on the list.

Conclusion

Check that all resources can be used with or without crediting the author of each resource. Some sites ask you to mention the name of the creator of the graphic art. ⚠️ Stay tuned!
