Have you optimized your images for web, ensuring a balance between quality and loading speed?

Image quality and size can majorly impact the loading speed of website. Also, the type of image would impact it like a gif would impact it more. How do you make a balance between the pictorial presentation of your website and it's loading speed?

This is always something I feel a lot of people get wrong when they create a website, I used to myself in my early days of creating websites not realizing it was affecting my website and preventing people from being able to load the pages due to either their device or even their internet connection.

I always found, especially with images if you were able to compress them or even make them thumbnail size instead of full size on your website pages that would help a lot with the amount of time it took to load the page.

I optimize the images I use on my website, I not only downsize the images but even use keywords for image name, I also add relevant alt tags, so that my content appears when someone does image search.

It's very important to make sure that images used on your website are optimized. Website's loading speed are always affect negatively and impeded with images that are not optimized. Personally, I don't like it whenever I'm using a website that loads very slow and I won't have large images used on my website without having them optimized.
