A software development company always emphasizes on optimizing every single image on the web page. The custom web development teams use the image optimizing softwares in order to remove all the unnecessary information from the image thereby reducing the file size effectively without compromising on the appearance of the image. Most of the web solutions experts use Adobe Photoshop to optimize the images. In Photoshop, a dialog box appears while saving an image which asks you to assign the quality of the image on a scale of 1-12. A range of 8-10 is the best option as it preserves the quality of the image and reduces the size considerably. If you do not have Photoshop, then there are many other image compressing softwares available on the internet which can reduce the file size of your image considerably.

An image file format GIF is also available, which can reduce the image size to a much larger extent than the other file formats by removing the irrelevant color information from the image that is not used. The disadvantage of the GIF file format is that it reduces the size of the image on the cost of the appearance of the image.
