Technical website support is an integral part of any web project. It is the process of keeping a website up and running and resolving technical issues that users may encounter. Website technical support is of utmost importance to users and businesses that depend on the efficient operation of their websites.

Before publishing an image on the site, whether it is an image in an article, a product photo or an image for a photo gallery, it is necessary to prepare it. Preparation means two operations – resizing the image (height and width) and compressing the image to the minimum size (taking into account the quality of the image). Why do you need to do this? Let’s take a simple example – a photo made by a digital camera or a cell phone can have a width of several thousand pixels. If you insert such an image on the site, when you show it to a visitor, it will still be reduced to the size of the viewing area.

Images taken with digital cameras or modern cell phones tend to be quite heavy – megabytes in weight. Even after the size of the image has been reduced, its weight can most often have room for optimization. What does optimizing (compressing) an image do? Less weight, first of all, allows the image to load faster. In addition, a compressed image takes up less space on the server.

The basis of visual perception of content are images. Very often site owners simply open a search engine, search for images and take the first liked images. However, this practice can be fraught with problems – because all images have their owner. There are a number of licenses for images. To determine which images can be used on your site, consider what licenses exist, and then understand where to take images for free use.
