PageLens vs a Basic Image Optimizer
Compression tools shrink your files. That's useful — but a smaller bad image is still a bad image. PageLens judges how your images actually perform, then helps you fix them.
Why the difference matters
It scores, not just squeezes
A compressor makes a bad photo smaller. PageLens tells you the photo is the problem — and how bad it is out of 100.
It ties images to trust
Dark, blurry, or stocky images quietly cost you customers. PageLens surfaces the ones hurting conversions first.
It sees the whole site
Consistency is a conversion factor. PageLens checks your images as a set, not one isolated upload.
It fixes, not just reports
For each weak image, PageLens generates a brand-matched, improved version you can review and use.
When is a basic optimizer enough?
If your only goal is faster load times and your images already look great, a compression tool does the job — and PageLens still recommends compressing your files. But if you're not sure whether your images are helping or hurting the sale, that's exactly the gap PageLens was built to close.
