What is the best image format for websites?

WebP is often the best choice for websites due to its superior compression for both lossy and lossless images, including support for transparency. This can lead to significantly faster page load times. However, optimized JPEGs are still excellent for photographs, and PNGs are best for graphics requiring sharp lines or transparency if WebP isn't a viable option for all target users.

How do I convert an image to JPG online for free?

Using our tool is simple! Upload your image (e.g., PNG, WebP, BMP), select 'JPEG' from the 'Convert to:' dropdown, and click 'Convert Image'. You can then download your photo converted to JPG for free.

Will image quality be lost when I convert image to JPG or other formats?

Converting to JPG is a lossy compression, meaning some data is discarded to reduce file size; our tool aims for high quality (around 90%) to minimize visible loss. Converting to PNG or BMP is generally lossless. Converting *from* a lossy format (like JPG) to a lossless one (like PNG) won't regain lost quality.

Can this tool act as an image size converter too?

This tool focuses on changing the file format (e.g., PNG to JPG). While format changes can affect file size, if you need to change the pixel dimensions (width and height) of your image, please use our dedicated 'Image Resizer' tool.

Is this image format converter software safe to use?

Yes, our online image converter processes images directly in your browser. Your files are not uploaded to our servers for this conversion, ensuring your privacy and security.
