The Google Search Console is indicating that my .png format for images is slowing down the loading of my pages.
Over the last few months, I resorted to use .png images on my websites in place of .jpeg images.
I was either advised by someone, or read something that convinced me to make the switch to .png images to enable my pages to load faster on the Internet.
Now, I am finding all kinds of conflicting information regarding image formats, particularly on the desired or recommended image format to use here at WA.
As an example, I uploaded 2 identical color images to one of my websites at WA. One was in a .png format and the other in a .jpeg format.
When I opened my Media Library in the WordPress Dashboard, the .jpeg image is indicating a file size of 45kb. The same, identical image in the library in a .png format indicated a file size of 125kb.
Based on what I had read, the .png format file size should have been smaller.
To make matters worse, or at least more complicating, is that PageSpeed Insights is recommending for me to switch to the new WebP image format to decrease the loading time of my pages.
The WebP image format is not supported in Apple devices.
What is your recommendation regarding the image format to use?
You wrote "NOTE: Do not forget to add all site versions of your site (HTTPS and HTTP, WWW and non-WWW versions) as unique properties to track all traffic and obtain the most data."
My properties at Google Analytics and Google Search Console are all listed with https://
When I go to a browser window and type in one of my properties as http://, it finds the property, but it is shown as https://
Is it really important to add all site versions as you suggest above?
