What the author says it does
A free, fast, easy to use, stable and frequently updated plugin to resize your images after upload. Supported by the friendly team that created ShortPixel 🙂
This plugin automatically resizes images (JPEG, GIF, and PNG) when they are uploaded to within a given maximum width and/or height to reduce server space usage, speed up your website, save you time and boost your site’s SEO.
Imagine that nowadays images can be over 4-5MB and using this plugin you can reduce them to 100-200KB with no extra effort on your side!
In addition, the plugin can force the re-compression of uploaded JPEG images and convert PNGs to JPEG (if they don’t have a transparency layer), regardless of whether they are resized or not.
Is that simple, just give it a try, it is safe and free! 🙂

Questions the author answers
Is this plugin compressing the images?
Yes, this plugin compresses the original images, you can select the JPEG quality for example. For a professional image optimization solution though we recommend you this image optimization plugin.
