I joined Contra a while ago without really knowing what to expect, and it’s been really nice to see it gradually become a place where I’ve met great clients and worked on projects I genuinely love.

I audited the images on my own website: 56 Canva PNGs, 1.5–2.3MB each, 78MB in total.
After converting, resizing and compressing them, without changing how they look: 9.5MB. That's 88% lighter.
The biggest went from 2.3MB to 237KB.
The site "worked" before. It was just making every visitor wait.
If your WordPress or Elementor site feels slow, images are usually the first place I look. Happy to take a look at yours, so send me a message here on Contra.
