JPEGs and PNGs are larger than they need to be in 2026. WebP and AVIF cut sizes by 30-50% at the same visual quality — meaningful LCP improvement.

Use modern image formats

1. Convert JPEG/PNG images to WebP or AVIF format.
2. Use <picture> element with fallback for older browsers.

Why this matters

Modern image formats are the #1 lever for image-heavy pages. A 2MB hero JPEG becomes a 500KB WebP with no visible quality loss — ~1.5 seconds off LCP on mobile.

Every modern browser supports WebP (99%+ coverage). AVIF has lower support but is 30% smaller than WebP when it works.

Frequently asked questions

WebP or AVIF?expand_more
WebP for universal compatibility. AVIF if you want extra compression and are okay with a `<picture>` fallback for Safari edge cases.
Do I lose quality?expand_more
At sensible quality settings (75-85), visually imperceptible. Over-compression is visible.
