Why 20KB Remains the Social Sweet Spot

Social networks compress again after upload. Delivering a clean 20KB asset minimizes double-encoding artifacts, especially on mobile feeds.

  • Marketplace Listings
    Optimize previews for Etsy, Taobao, or Facebook Marketplace, where fast-loading results correlate with higher tap-through rates.
  • Link-in-Bio Pages
    Keep Linktree-style pages under 1MB total by capping hero images and CTA illustrations at 20KB each.
  • Content Syndication
    Provide publishers with pre-optimized 20KB thumbnails so your brand visuals survive RSS or AMP processing intact.

20KB Optimization Checklist

Follow these steps before you publish a campaign or update a landing page.

  • Pick the Target Aspect Ratio
    Most feeds use 1:1, 4:5, or 16:9. Choose the right crop so automatic resizing doesn’t introduce blur.
  • Apply Smart Sharpening
    Enable the adaptive sharpening toggle after compression to compensate for the slight softening introduced by aggressive quantization.
  • Review Caption Overlays
    If the asset includes text, export a version at 1.5× size, compress, then reduce to final dimensions to protect edge definition.

20KB Compression FAQ

Strategic guidance for marketers and content teams.

1

Do platforms recompress my upload?

Yes, but providing a clean 20KB image reduces the amount of additional compression and keeps edges sharper.

2

Should I export JPG or WebP?

WebP is ideal for gradients and PNG-like transparency; JPG works for photos on platforms that convert to JPEG anyway.

3

How many variants should I ship?

Prepare separate crops for square, portrait, and landscape placements. All can hit 20KB thanks to the batch export queue.

4

Can I embed metadata?

Yes—use the metadata locker to keep alt text and IPTC tags while still landing on 20KB.
