Are there guidelines for optimizing video quality while managing file size?

  • This Article is for stores running on Solo plan or higher

Yes, there are several best practices to optimize video quality while keeping file size manageable:

1. Use the Right Format
 
  • Preferred: MP4 (H.264 codec) — best for compatibility and compression
  • Alternate: WebM (for smaller sizes)
  • File Size: 10MB
2. Choose an Optimal Resolution
 
  • Recommended: 720p (1280×720) or 1080p (1920×1080)
  • Avoid 4K unless necessary—it greatly increases file size
3. Limit Duration
 
  • Aim for 15–60 seconds for product videos
  • Shorter videos reduce bounce rates and load faster
4. Compress Videos
 
  • Use tools like HandBrake, Clideo, or VEED.io to reduce file size without noticeable quality loss

By following these guidelines, you can optimize video quality while managing file size effectively.
