When it comes to web images, choosing the right format can significantly impact your website performance and user experience. WebP and JPG are two of the most popular formats, each with its own strengths.

JPG has been the standard for photographs on the web for decades. It offers good compression and is universally supported across all browsers and devices. However, WebP is a modern format developed by Google that provides superior compression.

WebP images are typically 25-35% smaller than equivalent JPG images at the same quality level. This means faster page loads and reduced bandwidth usage. However, older browsers may not support WebP, so having a fallback strategy is important.
