Tutorial image editing for the website
File name designation
In the image file name should NO umlauts like ä, ü, ö and NO spaces be present. All in lowercase written.
Correct: gartenbaubader-rasenpflege-zuerich.jpg
Incorrect : IMG_6701.jpg or Zurich City.png
The same applies to media with the following file extensions such as .pdf, .jpg, .png, .webP, .mp3, .mp4, etc.
The optimal image size
- The image size depends on the setting in WordPress or themes (demo images).
- Standard setting WordPress 1024 x 1024 pixels
- Size 1280 x 850 pixels
- Recommended resolution 75 DPI
- Reduce the image to the correct size and only then upload it.
- Recommended max. 150 kB (Ideal 50 – 100 kB). Do not upload large images (over 0.5 MB).
- After uploading images in WordPress, don't forget to add the alt text. Important for SEO and AI.
