Canva Downloads to WebP for Faster Pages

Canva's PNG is a design export, not a web asset. A 1920 px social graphic can be 2 MB. WebP at 80–88% is typically 80–200 KB and looks the same on a landing page.

Download once, convert once

Download PNG (or JPG) from Canva at the size you need. Convert the folder. Do not download 'PDF for print' for a website.

Why it matters

Small businesses live in Canva and WordPress.
Every blog post adds another uncompressed PNG.
No one wants ImageMagick on a church volunteer laptop.

How to do it

Download the campaign PNGs.
Convert at the page width (often 1200–1600), quality 85.
Upload WebP to the CMS.

Settings that work

Text-heavy carousels: 90%. Photo collages: 80%.
