Bilder machen bei vielen Shops über 50 % des Seitengewichts aus – und werden kaum optimiert. 🖼️

Dateiname "IMG_4832.jpg" sagt Google nichts. Alt-Text fehlt. Format ist JPEG statt WebP. Lazy Loading? Fehlanzeige.

Dabei ist Bilder-SEO low-hanging fruit: Beschreibende Dateinamen, Alt-Text mit Kontext, WebP mit Fallback, Lazy Loading ab Bild 2. Kostet einen Nachmittag, spart Ladezeit und bringt Traffic über die Bildersuche.

About 46% of global mobile users connect to the internet using 2G or 3G. That’s nearly half of all mobile users. When we optimize our websites, we’re not just helping the environment. We’re making the internet accessible to people who otherwise can’t use it.

Has this changed the way you think about page weight?

Bet you did not know this: scroll is not an excluding input for CLS. There is no 500ms grace period. Every layout shift during a scroll counts.

That hide-on-scroll header animating top? New layout shift on every frame. Every scroll direction change.

Fix: replace top with transform: translateY(). Compositor only. Zero shifts.

Lighthouse will never catch this. It does not scroll.

I grew up in the era of 56K modems where downloading a 3MB image took 7-8 minutes. We had to think carefully about what we added to a page. Today, we have fast connections and we stopped thinking. Maybe it’s time we start again.

What’s the heaviest website you’ve come across recently?

I built a small Windows tool for fast image conversion.

Pixel Press converts images to modern formats like WebP and AVIF in seconds with simple drag & drop and batch processing.

Great for developers and faster websites.
