Why Convert JPEG to WEBP?

Converting from JPEG Image to WebP Image is useful when you need 25-34% smaller than jpeg at equal quality. JPEG Image has limitations: lossy compression degrades quality each time it's re-saved. WebP Image addresses this by offering 25-34% smaller than jpeg at equal quality and supports both lossy and lossless compression. WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that offers superior compression for both lossy and lossless images.
