CMA
Shrink Heavy Images by Up to 80% Without Losing Quality
Images make up over half of all website weight. Compress My A$$ automatically converts your photos into next-gen formats (WebP & AVIF) right on your own server. No monthly image limits, no recurring credit fees, and no sending your private photos to third-party cloud queues.
Why Heavy Images Are Killing Your Site Speed
When clients upload 5MB camera photos or high-resolution graphics, your pages slow to a crawl. Visitors leave before the page finishes loading, and Google penalizes your rankings.
Typical image plugins (like ShortPixel, Imagify, or Smush) charge expensive monthly subscriptions, lock you into stingy credit caps, and send your private media to third-party cloud servers.
Compress My A$$ changes that. It compresses all your media locally on your own server—fast, private, and with zero monthly bills.
- ✓Automatic Upload Shrinking: Compresses images the moment they are uploaded to WordPress.
- ✓Next-Gen WebP & AVIF: Creates ultra-lightweight copies for modern browsers automatically.
- ✓Bulk Library Optimizer: Compresses your existing library in the background without server timeouts.
- ✓Original Protection Vault: Keeps high-res originals untouched in a secure folder for total peace of mind.
Google loves WebP and AVIF. CMA automatically creates modern format versions that are up to 80% smaller than older JPEGs and PNGs, cutting load times in half.
Zero external cloud queues. Your photos never leave your server, keeping client media, proprietary photography, and sensitive documents completely private.
Never worry about running out of “image credits” mid-month. Compress as many photos as you want, as often as you want, with zero surprise overage fees.
Already have thousands of photos in your media library? Run the 1-click bulk compressor. It works quietly in the background without slowing down your site.
We never overwrite or destroy your master files. Your pristine original high-resolution photos are stored in a private backup vault so you can restore anytime.
Connects seamlessly with Speed My A$$ Up. SMAU serves your pages in under 1 second, while CMA makes your images feather-light for the ultimate speed combo.
