Pixelweb Image Optimizer makes your images lighter and your Core Web Vitals better without sending a single file to a third-party service. Everything runs on your server with the GD or Imagick library WordPress already uses.
What makes it different
No account, no API key, no quota. Many image optimizers send your files to a paid cloud service with monthly credits. This one converts on your own server, as many images as you have.
Speed and image SEO in one place. Conversion, lazy loading and an image SEO workflow (score per image, inline alt text editor, clean file names on upload) share one dashboard, built for agencies that hand sites over to clients.
Safe with page caches and CDNs. WebP is served with standard
Protects the LCP. The first images of a page are never lazy-loaded, the setting is aligned with WordPress core, and nothing is loaded in JavaScript.
Lighter images, unlimited
Automatic WebP copies of every new upload and every thumbnail size.
Bulk optimization of your existing library — no monthly quota, no credits.
Originals are never modified. WebP files are stored in their own folder, uploads/pixelweb-image-optimizer/, which mirrors your media library (2026/10/photo.jpg.webp), so photo.jpg and photo.png can never overwrite each other.
A WebP that would be heavier than the original is thrown away automatically.
Huge uploads are limited with WordPress’ own non-destructive “scaled” image.
Served the right way
URL rewrite mode for themes whose CSS does not like
Works with blocks, classic content, featured images, widgets, block theme templates and WooCommerce product galleries.
Exclude any image by file name or CSS class (no-pixelweb).
Core Web Vitals
Native lazy loading (no JavaScript) for the images WordPress misses.
LCP protection: the first images of the page are never lazy-loaded.
decoding="async" on every image.
Image SEO
SEO score for every image in the media library.
Fast alt text editor: type, press Enter, next image.
Detects missing or weak alt text, non-descriptive file names (IMG_, DSC, WhatsApp Image…), heavy files and oversized images.
SEO-friendly file names on upload: “Photo Été_2024.JPG” becomes “photo-ete-2024.jpg”.
For developers and agencies
WP-CLI: wp pixelweb optimize, wp pixelweb status, wp pixelweb clean.
Filters: pixelweb_quality, pixelweb_exclusions, pixelweb_delivery_filters, pixelweb_picture_sources.
Clean uninstall.
Pro add-on
A separate add-on, sold on our website and not hosted here, adds AVIF output, quality per image type, blur-up placeholders, automatic alt text and white-label client reports. This free plugin is complete on its own: nothing in it is locked, and it never limits the number of images.
Additional Information
Purpose
Pixelweb Image Optimizer reduces the weight of the images on a WordPress site and fixes their SEO, without sending files to an external service. It creates WebP copies on your own server, serves them to the browsers that support them, lazy-loads images below the fold and helps you write useful alt text.
Key features
Automatic WebP conversion of new uploads and of every thumbnail size.
Bulk optimization of the existing media library, with no quota.
Two delivery modes:
Native lazy loading with protection of the first images (LCP).
Image SEO score, inline alt text editor and SEO-friendly file names on upload.
WP-CLI commands for large libraries.
Requirements
WordPress 6.2 or later.
PHP 7.4 or later.
The GD or Imagick PHP extension compiled with WebP support. Most hosts provide it; the plugin dashboard shows what your server supports.
Write access to the uploads folder (the same access WordPress needs to create thumbnails).
Compatibility
Tested with WordPress up to 7.1.
Works with classic and block themes, the block editor, widgets and WooCommerce product images.
Works with page cache plugins and CDNs in the default
Multisite: settings and statistics are stored per site.
Converted files are stored in uploads/pixelweb-image-optimizer/, inside the uploads folder, so backup and migration plugins copy them with the rest of the media.
Configuration
Open Pixelweb → Settings.
Keep the default quality (82) unless you need smaller files; between 75 and 85 the difference is hard to see on photos.
Choose the delivery mode. Keep “
Add exclusions (one file name or CSS class per line) for images that must never change, such as a logo or a slider.
Open Pixelweb → Bulk Optimize to convert the images you already have.
Troubleshooting
The dashboard says WebP is not supported: ask your host to enable WebP in GD or Imagick. The plugin does not change anything until the server can write WebP.
Visitors still receive JPEG or PNG files: purge your page cache and CDN after the bulk optimization, then check the page source for
The layout of a page changed: switch Settings → Delivery to “URL rewrite”, or exclude the image by file name or with the CSS class no-pixelweb.
An image was skipped: the WebP version would have been heavier than the original, or the GIF is animated. Both are kept as they are on purpose.
Something else goes wrong: enable WP_DEBUG_LOG in wp-config.php, reproduce the problem and send us the lines mentioning “pixelweb” from wp-content/debug.log.
