JPG to WEBP Converter

While JPG is the long-standing king of photographic images on the web, a modern format developed by Google, **WEBP**, offers a significant upgrade for any performance-focused website. The primary reason to convert your JPG images to WEBP is to achieve a **dramatic reduction in file size without a noticeable loss in quality**.

WEBP's advanced compression algorithms are far more efficient than JPG's. At a comparable visual quality, a WEBP image can be **25-35% smaller** than its JPG counterpart. For a website with many images, this translates directly into faster page load times, lower bandwidth consumption, and better Core Web Vitals scores—a key factor in modern SEO.

Key Advantages of WEBP over JPG:

• Superior Compression: Smaller file sizes lead directly to faster websites, which improves user experience and search engine rankings.
• Transparency & Animation Support: Unlike JPG, WEBP supports an alpha channel for transparency, making it a versatile format that can replace both JPG and PNG in many use cases. It also supports animation.
• High-Quality Output: WEBP's compression technology often produces images with fewer blocky artifacts than JPG at the same file size, especially at lower quality settings.
• Excellent Browser Support: WEBP is now supported by over 97% of browsers worldwide, including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge, making it a safe and reliable choice for any web project.
