JPG VS. PNG - Fast or Slow Transparent or No?
I may be showing my ignorance with this blog, but if my lack of knowledge helps just one person, it is well worth it.
Did you know that the type of images on your website makes a difference in your Google rankings?
If you do, then you are way ahead of me. I have been doing affiliate marketing for maybe 6 years now, and it never ceases to amaze me how much there is to learn.
More than likely, I heard about images somewhere, but it slipped my mind, and today I replaced 103 images on a new website I created a month ago.
So Here It Is:
Suppose you use Canva to create images which I love to create, so Canva is my best friend. But Canva will automatically download your images as png. So, all the images I made for my new website were in PNG. NOT, good, not at all!
In light of this, I spent one-day making new jpg images.
I am attaching a comparison chart for JPG vs. PNG to help clarify my point.
In a nutshell, JPG loads faster and helps with the speed of your website. PNG has more clarity but is too large. You can make transparent backgrounds with PNG but not with JPG.
So if you need a transparent logo or image of yourself, by all means, use PNG but don’t get carried away with it as I did.
Happy Sunday, my friends.

Great advice. One this I do that seems to help is that I often snip a png that I use. The quality remains the same, but the png's become jpg when snipped

Good advice Laura. There are some pics I use png where I do want high-quality images, like my logo. But I always use jpg for featured images and the rest. As long as I don't forget to change it in Canva.
Cheers.
