JPGExtra - Sample Web Page
|
Typical web sites, particularly shopping and photo sites, contain many individual JPG files on each page. After
optimizing those JPG files with JPGExtra, web pages go from "empty" to "full" much faster.

Widespread Problem
|
I've found that almost
ALL web sites have JPG files containing hidden extras, ranging from a few bytes to tens of thousands of bytes
per file. Large numbers of such files on a web site can create a significant impact, more than just making the
site seem slow:
- Increased disk space requirements;
- Higher bandwidth costs and higher peak bandwidth;
- Longer page load times, which affects web rankings;
- Greater memory usage, which can affect visitors' computers.
Anyone serious about web site optimization will understand that it pays to strip
ALL excess from JPG files to make them as lean and fast as possible.
