When choosing images for your site, the first thing many people focus on is the quality. However, you also need to consider the file size. If not, large images could lead to pages that load slowly. A way to ensure your images still look good but arenât too large is to compress them to 500KB.
Our free online tool lets you compress up to 100 images down to 500KB at once, in only a few seconds. Itâs completely safe to use, and doesnât force you to download a piece of software or create an account. The tool works with JPEGs, GIFs, PNGs, and several other types of images.
To get started with the tool, simply drag and drop your image(s) into the image area or browse for them on your computer. Next, press âCompress All'' and within seconds, youâll have 500KB versions of all your images. After that, save them to your device by clicking âDownload Allâ.
Frequently Asked Questions
How big is a 500kb image?
The actual size of a 500KB image varies on a case-by-case basis. You can easily adjust the dimensions to fit your needs. However, remember that adjusting the dimensions of a 500KB image could lead to a loss of quality and reduce the overall sharpness of the image.
How to reduce the size of a JPEG image to 500KB?
In order to reduce the size of a JPEG to 500KB, consider using our online tool. Itâs completely free, works directly in your browser, and lets you bulk compress up to 100 images safely in seconds.
Which image formats does your tool support?
We support major image formats including JPEG, PNG, GIF, SVG, WebP, TIFF, and BMP.
Will the image quality change after compression?
Unfortunately, yes. Our tool uses a specific mechanism to achieve your goal of reducing the image size to exactly 500KB or around this size. That means if your original image(s) is very large, e.g. several MBs, after compression, the image quality will decrease.
Will the image size change after compression?
Whether the image size will change or not depends on the height of your original images. If the height of your original images is less than 3024 px, the image size will remain after compression. Otherwise, the size of your images will be changed to ensure the file size is around 500KB after compression.
How many images can I upload at once?
Our tool allows you to upload up to 100 images to compress to 500KB at one time.
