QloApps WebP Image Converter | For better website performance

QloApps WebP Image Converter is an add-on for QloApps which will convert your website images to WebP for faster websites.

WebP is an image format that was rolled out by Google. It has a better size reduction while retaining the best quality than the JPG and PNG formats.

Hence using the WebP images looks good on your website as they have quality while making your website faster.

According to Google, WebP lossless images are 26% smaller than PNGs and WebP lossy images are 25-34% smaller than JPEG images. Lossless WebP compression applies already seen image fragments in order to exactly reconstruct new pixels. It can also use a local palette if it finds no interesting match.

To know more about compression techniques, read WebP Compression Techniques in Detail.
