WooCommerce Images SEO
3 Images SEO Plugins for your WooCommerce Shop
WooCommerce images SEO ensures that your PageSpeed improves. If you want to know which 3 images SEO plugins for your WooCommerce store will take care of that, watch the video until the end.
WooCommerce images SEO - 3 plugins under the microscope
Today we will talk about a very important topic for all online retailers. In the broadest sense, it is once again about our special topic SEO, to be exact “Images SEO”. Why this is so important and with which 3 plugins you can implement this for your WooCommerce store, you can find out here.
Why does PageSpeed play an important role?
One of the most important SEO factors for Google is PageSpeed, which means how fast your page loads. The background of the whole thing is that Google naturally wants to offer the user the best possible user experience, which is why such pages are also preferred in the SERPs. So if you look at the website or the online store and see what causes the largest amount of data, then hopefully the answer should be “the images”. Because videos should always be integrated via streaming providers such as YouTube or Vimeo. The worst thing you could do would be to upload the high quality file directly from the product photographer. This can be several megabytes in size and would drastically minimize PageSpeed. Therefore, regardless of the tools presented, my tip would be to bring the files to a humane filesize before uploading. That is, in the kilobyte rather than the megabyte range. This could be achieved, for example, by… with Photoshop or else TinyPNG. Or you can tell your photographer that you would like to receive additional files that are already compressed.
WooCommerce Images SEO with Shortpixel
But the finishing touches are then brought by our three WordPress or WooCommerce plugins. Number 1 would be Shortpixel. On the website, a visual example demonstrates that an 85% image compression is not difficult to see. Or what do you think? Feel free to write us your feelings in the comments. You will then get 3 choices of compression – Lossy, Glossy and Lossless. It’s best to try it out for yourself and see which result makes you happy. Lossy is the option with the smallest file size and then increases to Lossless.
The whole thing is available as a WordPress plugin and can be used directly when uploading your images.
You get 100 credits for free when you sign up, which means you can test it without any problems and then see afterwards if you want to purchase a plan.
Plugin number 2
Another plugin that you can also test for free is Imagify. Here 20MB per month are free of charge. For 9,99€ you can buy an Unlimited Plan, where you don’t have to worry about how many images you have already compressed. Again, there is basically a 3 level compression selection, depending on how much percent you want the image compressed. Of course, the whole thing is also available as a WordPress plugin.
WooCommerce Images SEO Plugin Number 3
Our number 3 would then be Optimole, which is already very different from the other two this time. Because Optimole is an all-in-one cloud solution. That means you upload the images at Optimole on the server, here they are automatically optimized, the correct file size is selected independently depending on the end device of the user, Lazy Load must then also no longer be generated via another plugin, so therefore just All-In-One. And for this your server would be relieved. However, this also means that you are then more or less bound to Optimole. Because if you cancel the plan, the images would also no longer be compressed.
Optimole offers the possibility to upload and compress as many images as you want in each plan. However, this plan model is then based on page visitors per month. At under 50,000, the Starter Plan is perfectly adequate and would be available for $22.99 with monthly payments. Above 50,000, this is then staggered in the specified steps.

Three plugins that all do the same thing, but work differently in terms of technology and have different pricing models.
In the end, you’ll have to decide for yourself what makes the most sense. However, if you still can’t decide, then we at eBakery as a WooCommece agency and WordPress agency are happy to help. Feel free to make an appointment directly.
