What is WebP Format?
Understanding the modern image format that's revolutionizing the web
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google in 2010 that provides superior lossless and lossy compression for images on the web. Using WebP, webmasters and web developers can create smaller, richer images that make the web faster.
WebP lossless images are Up to 99% smaller in size compared to PNGs. WebP lossy images are Up to 99% smaller than comparable JPEG images at equivalent quality. This significant reduction in file size translates directly to faster page loads, improved user experience, and better search engine rankings.
The format supports both lossy and lossless compression, as well as animation and alpha transparency. This makes WebP a versatile replacement for PNG, JPEG, and GIF formats—covering virtually all use cases for web images.
