Frequently Asked Questions
How long does image optimization take to show results?
You’ll see immediate performance improvements once images are optimized – often within days of implementation. Search visibility improvements typically appear within 2-4 months as search engines re-crawl and re-index your visual content. The full impact compounds over time as more images are optimized and search algorithms recognize your site’s quality improvements.
What's the difference between image optimization and regular SEO?
Image optimization specifically targets visual content performance, including file size reduction, format selection, metadata enhancement, and visual search visibility. Regular SEO focuses on text content, keywords, and traditional search rankings. Both are essential – images impact page speed (a ranking factor), user experience, and provide additional traffic channels through Google Images and Pinterest.
Will compression reduce my image quality?
Our optimization uses smart compression techniques that reduce file sizes by 60-80% while maintaining visual quality imperceptible to human eyes. We employ different strategies based on image type: lossy compression for photos, lossless for graphics with text, and format-specific optimization. You’ll receive before/after samples for approval before bulk processing.
Can you guarantee faster page speeds?
While we can’t control all factors affecting page speed (hosting, third-party scripts, etc.), we guarantee significant improvement in image-related performance metrics. 93% of our clients achieve at least 50% reduction in image payload and corresponding improvements in Core Web Vitals scores within the first month of optimization.
Do you work with large image libraries?
Absolutely. We specialize in handling enterprise-scale optimization projects with tens of thousands of images. Our automated workflows, bulk processing capabilities, and API integrations enable efficient optimization at scale without manual bottlenecks. We’ve successfully optimized libraries exceeding 100,000 images for major e-commerce platforms.
What if I'm already using a CDN?
Our service complements existing CDN infrastructure perfectly. We optimize images before CDN delivery, ensuring your CDN serves already-compressed, properly-formatted files. This combination maximizes performance benefits. We can also recommend CDN configurations specific to image delivery if optimizations are needed.
Will this work for my image-heavy website?
Image optimization is particularly crucial for image-heavy websites like e-commerce stores, portfolios, galleries, and content publishers. The more images you have, the greater the performance impact and ROI from optimization. We’ve successfully worked across all image-intensive industries with proven results.
How do you measure image optimization success?
We track comprehensive metrics including: page load time reductions, Core Web Vitals scores (LCP, CLS, FID), total page weight decrease, Google Images traffic growth, visual search rankings, bounce rate improvements, and conversion rate changes. Monthly reports demonstrate clear progress with visual before/after comparisons.
What happens to new images I upload?
Depending on your package, we either optimize new images monthly in batches, or provide automated workflows that optimize every uploaded image in real-time. Enterprise clients receive API access enabling automatic optimization integrated directly into their CMS or e-commerce platform upload processes.
Are there any setup fees or additional costs?
No setup fees, no hidden costs. Our pricing is completely transparent and includes all optimization work, reporting, and support. The only potential additional cost might be CDN service fees if you don’t currently use one, which we’ll discuss upfront if recommended for your situation.
Can I upgrade or downgrade my package?
Yes, you can adjust your package anytime to match your needs and image volume. Many clients start with our Foundation package and upgrade as their image library grows or they want to accelerate optimization timelines for better performance results.
Do you provide training on image optimization best practices?
We offer comprehensive training for content creators, designers, and marketing teams on image optimization fundamentals. This includes proper format selection, compression before upload, alt text writing, responsive image implementation, and maintaining optimization standards for new content creation.
