SiteStakes Cloudflare Image Boost is an image speed optimization add-on that automatically compresses, resizes, and delivers every image on your real estate website through Cloudflare's global CDN. A 3MB property photo becomes an 85KB AVIF file — 97% smaller — served from whichever of 300+ worldwide edge servers is closest to the visitor. It improves Core Web Vitals, keeps more people on your website, and works instantly on activation with zero configuration.
Your Site Is Fast. Image Boost Makes It Instant.
Every image on your site — property photos, blog images, ebook covers, Street View captures — automatically optimized, resized, and delivered through Cloudflare's global edge network.
Image speed optimization that gives you faster pages, better SEO, and higher conversions.
What Happens to Your Images
One photo. Two outcomes.
97% smaller · Visually identical · Zero effort
What Is SiteStakes Cloudflare Image Boost?
❌ WITHOUT IMAGE BOOST
A seller visits your site from their phone. Your hero image is a 3MB photo uploaded straight from your camera. It takes 4 seconds to load. Google flags your Core Web Vitals as "Poor." The seller sees a blank screen, hits the back button, and calls your competitor whose site loaded instantly. You never knew they existed.
⬇️
✅ WITH IMAGE BOOST
Same photo, same phone, same seller. Cloudflare detects their device, serves a perfectly sized AVIF image at 85KB — 97% smaller — from a server near them. The page loads in under 1 second. The seller sees your cash offer form before they can blink. They fill it out. You get the lead.
🚀
Instant Page Loads — Under 1 Second
Every image is automatically compressed and converted to next-gen formats (AVIF WebP conversion) with intelligent fallbacks. Visitors see your content immediately — no spinners, no blank screens, no waiting. Fast sites get more leads. Period.
📱
Device-Perfect Sizing — Every Screen
A desktop gets a 1600px hero. A phone gets a 400px version. A tablet gets something in between. Cloudflare detects the device and serves responsive images at the exact right size — no wasted bandwidth on mobile, no blurry upscaling on desktop.
📈
Better Google Rankings — Core Web Vitals
Google rewards fast sites with higher search rankings. Image Boost directly improves your Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) scores — the metrics Google actually measures. Better scores mean more organic traffic.
🌍
Global CDN — 300+ Edge Locations
Your images are cached at Cloudflare's edge servers worldwide. A seller in Phoenix gets images from Phoenix. A buyer in Miami gets them from Miami. No round-trip to your origin server. Every visitor gets local speed through edge delivery.
🏠
Every Image, Automatically
Property photo optimization happens the moment an image is served — blog featured images, ebook covers, owner headshots, logos, Street View captures, gallery images. No manual resizing, no Photoshop, no extra uploads. It just works.
💰
Reduce Bounce, Increase Conversions
Every second of load time costs you conversions. Studies show a 1-second delay reduces conversions by 7%. Image Boost typically cuts image load times by 80–90%, which means more visitors stay, more forms get filled, and more deals get closed.

How Image Boost Works
1
You upload images as normal
Property photos, blog images, logos — upload them exactly as you do today. No format requirements, no size restrictions, no extra steps.
2
Cloudflare intercepts every image request
When a visitor's browser requests an image, Cloudflare's real estate image CDN handles it before it ever hits your server.
3
Images are optimized on the fly
Cloudflare detects the visitor's device and browser, then applies website image compression, resizes, and converts to the best format (AVIF → WebP → JPEG fallback) — all in milliseconds. This is Cloudflare image speed optimization at work.
4
Served from the nearest edge location
The optimized image is cached and delivered from whichever of 300+ global data centers is closest to the visitor. Subsequent requests are served instantly from cache.
Make Every Image Work Harder For You.
Activate Image Boost and every image on your site is instantly optimized — property photos, blogs, ebooks, galleries — all served faster through Cloudflare's global network. The easiest image speed optimization you'll ever set up.

Do I need to change how I upload images?+
No. Upload property photos, blog images, and logos exactly as you do today. Image Boost optimizes everything automatically — no format requirements, no size restrictions, no extra steps.
Will my images look worse?+
No. The quality difference is invisible to the human eye. A 3MB JPEG becomes an 85KB AVIF that looks identical on screen — your visitors won't notice the website image compression. Your page speed score will.
What formats does Image Boost use?+
AVIF first (smallest, best quality), WebP as fallback, JPEG for older browsers. The format is chosen automatically based on what the visitor's browser supports.
How much does Image Boost cost?+
One flat monthly fee per site. Unlimited images, unlimited bandwidth, no per-image charges, no overage fees. It activates immediately and works on every image across your entire site.
What are Core Web Vitals and how does Image Boost help?+
Core Web Vitals are three things Google measures on every website — loading speed, visual stability, and responsiveness. Images are usually the heaviest element on a page. By making them 80-97% smaller and delivering them from the nearest server, Image Boost directly improves your Largest Contentful Paint score — the #1 metric for page speed ranking. It also enables lazy loading so images below the screen don't slow down the initial page load.
Can I use Image Boost with my existing site?+
Image Boost is an add-on for any SiteStakes site. Activate it from your back office and it starts working immediately — no migration, no code changes, no downtime.
