Google’s Core Web Vitals directly impact organic search rankings, and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) is the hardest metric for image-heavy websites to pass. A hero banner or product photograph can be the LCP element.
1. The Real Cost of Uncompressed Hero Images
To achieve a "Good" LCP score, your main above-the-fold visual must render within 2.5 seconds even on a throttled 4G mobile connection. A single 2.5MB PNG banner takes over 3 seconds just to transfer over mobile networks, immediately triggering a poor PageSpeed Insights score.

- Serve Next-Gen Formats: Switch the Output Format dropdown to
Convert to WebPto compare the actual output size with JPEG and PNG files.
