Is it worth optimizing images less than 1MB for the site?
I have 3-5 pictures on one page with a total weight of 3-4mb, should they be reduced? When loading? Or is it not a load nowadays?

Answer 1

Costs.

Answer 2

The weight of the images affects the page loading speed, and it needs to be accelerated as much as possible. The answer is in the first comment :)

Answer 3

For the web, pictures weighing 80-150 KB are suitable. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize.

Answer 4

I'll share my experience of compressing pictures... At first, I had to manually recompress all the pictures through Photoshop. By the way, the most free option (except for the cost of a license for Photoshop). But this process takes a lot of time if there are more than 10-20 pictures on the site. After all, each picture must be manually processed, and then uploaded to the site again. Such a tedious process... Now I use this service - https://optipic.io/ Saves a lot of time) Works by itself - automatically - only 1 time it needs to be connected to the site. Google is happy

Answer 5

If you have three users who don’t care, if ten thousand are waiting, then you should think about it
