Convert JPG to WebP to Boost Page Speed and SEO

📅 May 14, 2026⏰ 6 min read✍️ Hassaan Ahmad

If your website uses JPG images and you're not serving WebP, you're leaving significant performance on the table. Google PageSpeed Insights specifically recommends "Serve images in next-gen formats" — and WebP is the primary recommendation.

The WebP Performance Advantage

Google's own testing shows WebP files are 25–35% smaller than JPEG at equivalent visual quality. For a website with 20 product images averaging 150KB each (total: 3MB), switching to WebP saves 750KB–1MB per page load — a significant improvement in load time.

WebP and Core Web Vitals

Google's Core Web Vitals ranking signal — Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) — measures how quickly your main content image loads. Smaller WebP images load faster, improving your LCP score and therefore your search ranking.

Browser Support for WebP in 2026

WebP is supported by 96%+ of all browsers globally — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, Opera. Serving WebP is safe for virtually all your visitors.
