Getting Started

PicPerf’s goal is to make upgrading your site’s image performance really easy. No messing with DNS, moving your images anywhere, or prepping them in any way. Just sign up for an account and prefix your site’s image URLs. Here are those steps in a little more detail:

Step #1: Create an Account

Create an account here. No card is required. Every new account comes with a 14-day free trial.

Step #2: Set Your Domain(s)

Set the domain from where you normally serve images. For example, if my image usually lives at https://macarthur.me/some-image.jpg, your domain would be macarthur.me. Some websites serve from multiple domains. That’s fine — add them all. If you don’t, optimization requests will be ignored, and you’ll be served the original, unoptimized version.

Step #3: Prefix Your URLs

For each image, stick https://picperf.io at the beginning. For example, https://macarthur.me/some-image.jpg becomes https://picperf.io/https://macarthur.me/some-image.jpg.

Integrations That Do the Work for You

There are a few integrations that’ll prefix your images for you, making setup event easier.
