We upload images after optimizing with photoshop using progressive mode and 60% Quality and after that we are using Imagify and it is awesome. Used others but they messed our images.

Imagify is good, and we are going to buy there credits because we have 500MB of images. Their monthly membership is also cheap and best.

I am using smush and it does not make a lot of difference. I think it also depends on the Theme you are using. Mine saves images in 8 different sizes. Should have thought about that first.

You forgot to add “KB” after 379 of the WPsmush PNG test results. Hence my ‘surprise’ EWWW was the winner. As I thought it implied bytes. But yes EWWW rocks the house, been using it for more than 6 months after testing many solutions myself

That’s very strange that you only saved 6kb with EWWW IO. Just tested it myself, and only Lossless mode gets that low of savings. With Lossy, I got 40% (21.5kb saved) and Max Lossy, it was 56.4% (30.3kb saved).

Hey Matthias,

No, thank you for suggesting the article. And I’m glad you liked it.

FileOptimizer sounds like a great tool — I’ll check it out :).

Hi, thank you very much for really doing this article. It’s great.
After testing a bit by myself I found FileOptimizer (not a plugin, but free) very effective, but a slow at the same time. But look at the performance 😉

For your PNG I got the following results:
309 K | 19,1% | lossless
82 K | 78,53% | lossy

The JPG here is only 54K, so I guess it’s one of your compressed ones (almost got no optimization in my test, stays at around 54)
