Does WordPress Reduce Image Size?

When you upload a photo to your WordPress blog, the photo is automatically resized to fit the size of the post. WordPress does this to make sure that the photo displays properly on all devices, whether they are desktop computers, laptops, tablets, or phones.

Some people might think that WordPress is reducing the size of their photos in order to make them look better on smaller devices. However, this is not the case.

WordPress is only reducing the size of the photo to make it fit within the confines of the post. If you want to reduce the size of your photo so that it will look nicer on all devices, you can use an online photo editor like Photoshop or GIMP.
