Why use JPG to WebP
- Smaller files that load faster on websites.
- Good quality for photos.
- Supported by all modern browsers.
Why use WebP instead of JPG?
Google, who created WebP, reports that lossy WebP images are about 25-34% smaller than comparable JPG images at the same visual quality. Smaller images load faster, which gives visitors a better experience and helps your pages perform well in search.
Before you switch
All current browsers show WebP, but a few older apps and upload forms still only accept JPG. Keep your JPG as a backup, and use WebP to JPG whenever you need to go back.
Creating a WebP file needs a browser that can export WebP. Current Chrome, Edge and Firefox can. If your browser cannot, the tool shows a message instead of a broken file.
Tips for best results
- Compare the file size shown with your original JPG before you download.
- Keep your JPG as a backup, since a few older apps cannot open WebP.
- Resize very large photos first for an even smaller result.
