An average website typically uses about 70% of its capacity to store images, making image optimization crucial for website speed. While there are free online tools like TinyPNG and Optimizilla available, they may have limitations on the number of images and image size, requiring time to upload and download. One solution is using Caesium Image Compressor, a free software that removes these limitations and saves time. Users can download the software, select image files or folders to compress, adjust settings like resize and compression options, and save the compressed images. Caesium Image Compressor is effective for jpg images but not as effective for PNG images.
