How To Optimize Photos For a Faster Website Without Losing Quality Using Photoshop or a Free Editor.

In this video I show you how to optimize your photos for best website performance and faster downloads. I show you how to correctly set your image size and pixel dimension in both Adobe Photoshop and a free program called IrfanView. First I show you how to save images for website in photoshop at the right size, by setting the pixel dimension and the quality when saving. I also show you the best image size for website use. I explain the difference between pixel count and PPI (pixels per inch) and how you can correctly change either depending on whether you want to print or display your images on the Internet. *As an affiliate I receive a small commission if you purchase from some of the links below, but at no extra cost to you.* Get Lightroom and Photoshop for around £10 per month on a 1-year subscription (affiliate link): https://amzn.to/33G5sg8 Get IrfanView for free here: https://www.irfanview.com/ Imagify: If you are a Wordpress user, they try this great plugin to optimise and resize your photos on upload automatically or within your media panel: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2206127&u=2450894&m=133994&urllink=&afftrack= Subscribe to my newsletter: https://blog.ianmiddletonphotography.com/subscribe/ Buy my book, A Practical Guide to Photography here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0954077970 Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/ianmiddletonphotography Equipment I use: Kase Filters: Kase Square ND 10 stop filter: https://kasefilters.com/product/kase-wolverine-100mm-x-150mm-nd-filter-nd1000-10-stop/ref/IanMiddleton/ Kase Square 2 stop Medium Grad: https://kasefilters.com/product/kase-wolverine-100mm-medium-grad-gnd-0-6-filter-2-stops/ref/IanMiddleton/ Kase K9 filter holder and polariser: https://kasefilters.com/product/kase-k9-kit-100mm-holder-with-magnetic-slim-polarising-filter/ref/IanMiddleton/ Wex Photo Video: Canon R5: https://tidd.ly/42PDhen Canon 5D: https://tidd.ly/3S1Olj0 Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM: https://tidd.ly/3ffvuCo Canon EF 24–105mm f/4L IS II USM: https://tidd.ly/3LxXvl3 Manfrotto MK055XPRO3 Tripod + X-Pro 3-Way Head: https://tidd.ly/3BYdIwx Benro Geared Head: https://tidd.ly/3MljonK You can get great deals at Currys in the UK here: (Affiliate links) Canon R5: https://tidd.ly/3BEuIHq Canon EF 24–105mm f/4L IS II USM: https://tidd.ly/3E9V8RM DJI Osmo Mobile 4: https://tidd.ly/38LcOYe Manfrotto Tripods and heads: https://tidd.ly/3v9Thbj Jessops (UK) Canon EOS R5: https://tidd.ly/3On3RXB Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM: https://tidd.ly/42I5iok Canon EF 24–105mm f/4L IS II USM: https://tidd.ly/40Sik15 Or try Adorama in the USA here: (Affiliate links) Canon EOS R5: https://adorama.rfvk.net/LXKLVZ Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM: https://adorama.rfvk.net/JrPmgv Canon EF 24–105mm f/4L IS II USM: https://adorama.rfvk.net/EaDZ5D Benro Geared Head: https://adorama.rfvk.net/doM4mK DJI Osmo Mobile 4: https://adorama.rfvk.net/6bZgBm Follow me: Website: https://ianmiddletonphotography.com/ Workshops: https://ianmiddletonphotography.co.uk/photography-workshops-tours/ Photography Blog: https://blog.ianmiddletonphotography.com/ Writing, SEO and Website design: https://ianmiddleton.co.uk Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/ianmiddletonphotography/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ianmiddletonphotography/ Buy prints: https://ian-middleton.pixels.com/ Music by Hooksounds: Get great music for your videos from Hooksounds by using my (affiliate) link and use the exclusive code IAN10 for 10% off subscriptions. https://www.hooksounds.com/ref/ianmiddleton/ Get Tube Buddy to improve your YouTube videos here (Affiliate link): https://www.tubebuddy.com/ianmiddletonphotographytravel
