PART 2

It starts as a joke.

Wine bottles rattle as Nobara kicks the recycling bin closed with the heel of her foot, the sound of glass clinking against cheap plastic barely audible over the laughter echoing through your tiny, overstuffed apartment. Maki flops onto the couch beside you, stretching out like a cat, her legs hooked over the armrest and one arm draped across her eyes. The air smells like takeout and wine, sweet and familiar, the kind of scent that clings to memories. Finals are looming like storm clouds, rent is due in a week, and the textbooks on the kitchen table are collecting more dust than notes. The weight of it all sits heavy in the background, but for now, there’s laughter—loud and warm and so completely alive it makes you forget that you’re broke. That you’re stressed. That everything feels impossible sometimes.

“I’m telling you,” Nobara says as she refills her glass, the wine sloshing close to the rim. “Sugar daddies are the answer. Tuition? Handled. Rent? Done. Textbooks? Bought by some old man who just wants to stare at your feet and be told he’s a good little pay pig.”

You nearly choke on your drink, laughing as you wave her off. “Yeah, okay. Sure.”

But Maki’s already pulling your laptop closer, pushing aside the half-eaten box of noodles and flicking the screen to wake it. “Come on, let’s just look. You never know.”

The three of you huddle close as the website loads, the layout exactly as tacky as you’d expect. It takes ten minutes to craft a profile that’s both over-the-top and strangely believable. You use a slightly sultry selfie from last month—nothing too scandalous, just a little cleavage and a coy smile. The bio is ridiculous: College student. Lit major. Broke but charming. Let’s make a deal. You don’t use your real name. The username you pick @YourSweetestSin is half a joke, half something that makes you snort. By the time the profile is live, you’re all laughing so hard your stomach hurts. It’s stupid. It’s harmless. You never intend to take it seriously.

But you don’t delete the profile either. Not that night. Not the next day.

The first message comes two days later while you’re curled in bed, laptop balanced on your thighs, half-focused on an essay you’re bullshitting at the last possible second. The ping startles you, the notification bouncing in the corner of your screen.

@TimeIsMoney: Hello.

That’s it. No gross pickup line. No emojis. No sleazy GIFs. Just a greeting. Curious, you click the profile, expecting a troll or someone who looks like he just escaped from a retirement home. But there’s no picture. Just a clean profile with a short bio: Professional. Discreet. Generous. It makes you snort. “Sure,” you mutter under your breath. But you reply anyway. For the bit. For the laugh. You can’t wait to show the girls.

Except it doesn’t end there. He writes back. You respond. The next message comes within the hour. Then another. And another. Each one short, to the point, polite in a way that disarms you. He asks how your classes are going. What books you’re reading. He doesn’t flirt. He compliments you, but not in a way that makes your skin crawl. It’s strange. It’s addictive. You start checking the app more often. You start replying faster. There’s something comforting about the consistency of it, about the way he always answers. Predictable. Reliable. And that’s something you didn’t realize you were craving until now.

Then, on the fifth night

I want to see you.

The message appears while you’re lying on your stomach, feet kicking behind you, chin resting in your palm. You read it three times. Your heart skips a beat, your stomach flips, and your first instinct is to laugh. This is the part where you bail, right? Where you screenshot it and send it to Nobara with a “can you believe this guy?” But instead, you’re walking to the mirror, pulling your hair over one shoulder, angling your phone just right. You pick your best push-up bra—the black one that hugs you perfectly—and snap a photo. You send it. Doll eyes. Slight pout. Your lips parting like you’ve done this a thousand times.

The response is immediate.

Good girl.

Then, a second later, another notification.

You’ve received $500.

You sit up. Blink. Refresh the app. But it’s there. Sitting in your account, waiting to be transferred. Your jaw drops. Then you scream. Then you laugh. Hard. You’re breathless. You don’t tell Nobara or Maki. Not this time.

From that moment on, it’s a blur. More messages. More requests. Nothing below the waist, not yet. Just photos. A little more skin each time. He never demands. He always asks. And he always pays.

Take off your bra. $500.

Show me your nipples. $700.

Each time, the money lands in your account within seconds. And each time, you find yourself a little wetter. A little more flushed. A little more eager to read the next message. You don’t just do it for the money anymore. You do it because his praise makes your stomach flutter. Because you feel seen. Desired. Wanted. Powerful.

Then comes the night he asks to call you. Your hands tremble as you answer. His voice is everything you didn’t expect. Calm. Smooth. Deep enough to settle in your bones and echo. He doesn’t flirt. He doesn’t tease. He tells you exactly what he wants. Exactly how he wants to hear you fall apart. You’re already naked when the call starts. The toy he told you to buy is buzzing between your thighs before he even finishes the first sentence. His voice doesn’t falter. He talks you through it like he’s done it a hundred times. You come so hard you see white. He pays you $1,000.

You don’t bother pretending anymore. You wait for his messages. You ache when he disappears for too long. You’re careful not to get too attached, but it’s hard not to wonder. Not to imagine what he looks like. How he might taste. How it would feel to have those hands on your skin instead of just your imagination. So when the next message comes, you already know how you’ll answer.

I want you meet you

When and where?

The hotel he books is far nicer than anywhere you’ve ever been. Just stepping into the lobby makes you feel like an imposter. Crystal chandeliers, velvet furniture, a floral arrangement so big it probably has its own budget. Your heels click across the marble as you walk toward the elevators, your trench coat clutched tight around your body, hiding the lace beneath. You keep your head down. Pretend you belong. The nerves bubbling in your stomach are loud enough, sharp enough to echo.

He said he’d meet you in the room. Top floor. Private. You know the number by heart. You’ve read it over and over again on the message thread. Your fingers hover over the keypad outside the suite door. You press it before you can talk yourself out of it.

The door swings open almost immediately. And there he is.

Nanami Kento.

He doesn’t look how you pictured. He’s younger. Broader. Tall enough that you tilt your chin up to meet his gaze. Blonde hair, glasses, expensive-looking suit. He smells like cedar and something clean and expensive. His jaw is sharp. His expression unreadable. But his eyes, they roam your body like he knows exactly what’s under your coat.

“Come in,” he says, stepping aside.

You move past him into the room. The suite is massive. Soft lighting, a king-sized bed with crisp white sheets, a view of the city skyline that stretches beyond floor-to-ceiling windows. You hear the door close behind you. The lock clicks.

“I wasn’t sure you’d come,” he says.

Your voice barely works. “I wasn’t sure either.”

“Are you nervous?”

You nod.

“Good.” He steps closer. “It means this matters.”

Then he touches you.

It’s not a grab. Not even a full reach. Just the brush of his fingers down your arm, slow and steady, his touch so light it makes your skin prickle. He looks at you like he’s reading you, analyzing every twitch, every flutter of your lashes. His fingers find the belt of your coat. He doesn’t tug. He doesn’t ask. He just looks at you.

You nod.

He undoes the knot slowly, methodically, like he’s unwrapping a gift he doesn’t want to damage. The coat falls open. His breath catches.

The lingerie is sheer black lace, delicate enough to feel sinful. You chose it for him. You’ve sent him pictures in it before. But the way he’s looking at you now—it makes your knees weak.

“Beautiful,” he says. It’s quiet. Like he’s talking to himself.

He slips the coat from your shoulders. It falls in a soft thud at your feet.

“Get on the bed.”

You crawl onto the bed, your knees sinking into the mattress, your heartbeat thudding loud in your ears. The sheets are soft beneath your hands, cool against your flushed skin, and you feel him watching you. Not just looking—watching. The heat of his gaze crawls along your spine as you settle on your back, your legs folding to the side, thighs tight with anticipation. He doesn’t move right away. He just stands there, drinking you in like you’re art, like you’re something to be studied.

Then he begins to undress.

Each movement is precise, deliberate. He removes his watch first, setting it on the nightstand with a soft click. Then he unbuttons his shirt, one button at a time, his fingers steady and sure. You watch his chest slowly come into view—firm, broad, sculpted in a way that makes your breath catch. His shoulders are wide, his waist trim, his skin smooth and golden under the low light. When he slides the shirt off and starts on his belt, your thighs press together involuntarily. The buckle clinks. The zipper lowers. And then he steps out of his slacks, revealing long legs, tight black briefs, and the hard line of his cock already straining against the fabric.

He climbs onto the bed with the kind of calm confidence that makes your stomach flip. He doesn’t pounce. Doesn’t rush. He kneels between your legs and runs his hands up your thighs, spreading them slowly, pushing them apart with the patience of someone who knows exactly what you need and intends to give it to you—on his terms. The cool air kisses your heat, and you realize how wet you already are, your arousal sticking to the inside of your thighs. He hums low in his throat as his fingers hook into your panties and begins sliding them down, inch by inch.

“You’ve been thinking about this,” he says softly. “I can feel it. You’re soaked.”

You whimper, arching slightly as he tosses the lace aside. He doesn’t tease. Doesn’t make you wait. He leans down, his broad shoulders pushing your thighs wider, and when his mouth finally touches you, you gasp—loud, sharp, uncontrollable. His tongue strokes through your folds with slow, deliberate pressure, tasting you like he has all night. His lips close around your clit, sucking gently, and your back bows off the bed.

“Fuck—Nanami,” you breathe, fingers flying into his hair.

He groans against your pussy, the sound vibrating through you. He eats you like he means it, like it’s his mission. His tongue moves with skill, pressure alternating between soft flicks and firm, devastating licks. One of his hands slides under your ass, lifting your hips, tilting you up so he can go deeper. The other moves between your legs, and when two fingers slide inside you, you cry out.

Your walls clench around him, tight and wet, your body already shaking. He curls his fingers just right and your thighs twitch in response, your breath catching. He doesn’t stop. Doesn’t let up. He watches you from below, eyes dark and steady, like he’s memorizing every twitch, every moan, every desperate roll of your hips. You’re spiraling. Unraveling.

It hits fast. Hard. Your orgasm crashes over you before you can warn him, a wave of heat and light that rips through your body and leaves you sobbing his name. Your hips buck, your legs tremble, your fingers claw at the sheets—but he holds you down, mouth still on you, tongue relentless.

When he finally pulls back, his chin is wet, his lips slick with you. He looks pleased. Controlled. Like he could keep going. Like he wants to.

“That’s one,” he murmurs, dragging his fingers from your cunt and bringing them to his mouth. He sucks them clean slowly, and you moan again, helpless, already throbbing with the need for more.

He leans over you and kisses you—slow, deep, messy—and you taste yourself on his lips. He rolls his hips against yours, his cock hot and hard against your thigh. Your hands slide down, tugging at the waistband of his briefs, and he lets you peel them down.

He’s thick. Long. Veins running along the shaft, the head flushed and already leaking.

“You want this?” he asks, voice low, rough.

“Yes,” you whisper. “Please.”

He lines himself up and pushes in slowly. Inch by inch. Stretching you wide, filling you so deep you can feel it in your stomach. Your jaw drops, a choked moan escaping as your nails sink into his back.

“Oh my god,” you gasp.

“Too much?” he breathes, pausing halfway.

“No—don’t stop. Please. Keep going.”

He groans, sliding in the rest of the way, bottoming out. He stays there, buried to the hilt, letting you adjust, his forehead pressed to yours.

“You’re so tight,” he murmurs. “So perfect around me.”

Then he moves.

Slow at first. Deep. His hips roll into yours, grinding with each thrust. It’s overwhelming, every drag of his cock hitting that spot inside you that makes your toes curl. You cling to him, moaning into his shoulder, and he presses kisses to your neck, your jaw, your lips.

“You’re doing so good,” he whispers. “Taking me so well. My good girl.”

The praise makes your walls flutter. Your body is already on edge again, hips rolling up to meet his, chasing more.

And then you remember—

“I thought you were gonna fuck me stupid,” you pant.

He stills.

His head lifts. His eyes meet yours.

“I was trying to be gentle,” he says, his voice suddenly darker. “But if you’re going to act like a cock-drunk little slut—”

He pulls out and flips you over in one smooth motion, dragging your hips up, pushing your chest into the mattress. He thrusts back into you hard, deep, and you scream into the sheets.

“—then I’ll fuck you like one”

He doesn’t hold back now. His pace is punishing, hips slamming into yours with the kind of strength that makes the bed creak beneath you. Each thrust drives his cock deeper, harder, making you cry out with every stroke. Your hands fist the sheets, knuckles white, as your body rocks forward from the force of him. He grabs your hips tighter, pulling you back onto him, forcing every inch of him inside like he’s claiming you, ruining you. Your thoughts are gone, scattered, every one of them drowned beneath the sound of skin meeting skin and the filthy things he’s growling into your ear.

“This what you wanted?” he pants, his voice a low growl. “To be fucked like a desperate little whore? You like it like this—don’t you?”

You try to answer, but all that leaves your mouth is a broken moan, high-pitched and needy. Your legs are shaking, your pussy clenching so tightly around him that you feel every twitch of his cock. You’re drooling onto the sheets, tears pricking at the corners of your eyes from how good it feels, from how deep he’s inside you.

He reaches down and grabs your hair, pulling your head back until your spine arches, your back flush to his chest. His hand slides down, fingers finding your clit with practiced ease. He rubs slow, tight circles, the pressure just right. Your body locks up.

“Oh my god—Nanami—fuck—”

“I want you to cum again,” he hisses into your ear. “Cum for me while I’m buried in this tight little pussy. Let me feel you fall apart.”

You do.

It hits harder than the first time, your body convulsing around him, thighs trembling, a sob of pleasure ripping from your throat as your orgasm tears through you. You clench around him so hard it makes him grunt, his rhythm faltering for the first time. He curses under his breath, fucking you through it, prolonging your high until you’re left a shaking, overstimulated mess.

“God, you’re fucking perfect,” he growls.

You collapse forward, cheek pressed to the sheets, too wrecked to hold yourself up anymore. But he doesn’t stop. He slows down, but he keeps moving, long deep strokes that fill you again and again. One hand stays on your hip while the other presses between your shoulder blades, holding you down. You’re gasping, moaning brokenly, your cunt so sensitive you’re already on the edge again.

“Please—please, I can’t—”

“Yes, you can,” he growls. “You’re gonna give me one more.”

His cock drags along your walls, thick and pulsing, hitting every spot that makes your vision blur. Your body is on fire. Nerves raw. Everything tightens again, too soon, too fast.

“Cum,” he demands, and the command alone pushes you over the edge.

You scream his name as your third orgasm slams into you, thighs quaking, fingers clawing at the mattress as you fall apart. Your pussy clenches so hard around him that his rhythm shatters. He groans, deep and guttural, thrusts stuttering as he slams into you one final time and spills inside you with a growl.

You can feel it—his cum flooding your pussy, hot and thick, filling you up as his body presses down on yours. His breath is hot against your back. His weight grounding.

He stays like that for a moment, both of you panting, your bodies tangled in heat and sweat. Then he pulls out slowly, gently, and you whimper at the loss. You feel the slick of his release drip down your thigh.

You’re boneless. Floating. Barely able to lift your head.

He pulls you into his arms, rolls you over, kisses your forehead. His hands are soft again, soothing, trailing along your back in lazy circles.

“You did so good,” he murmurs. “So fucking good.”

He holds you until your breathing slows. Until the ache in your muscles fades into something warm and satisfied. Until the world stops spinning quite so fast.

Then he rises. Dresses slowly. Smooths his hair back into place. He leans down to press one last kiss to your lips.

“The room is yours until tomorrow night,” he whispers. “Order whatever you want. Rest. Recover.”

You blink up at him, dazed. “Where are you going?”

He smiles. “I need to get ready for work on Monday.”

And then he’s gone.

The silence after he leaves is loud. You lie there for a while, naked in the sheets that smell like him, your body sore and aching in the best possible way. Everything feels distant. Fuzzy. Like your skin is still buzzing with the echo of his hands, his voice, the way he looked at you like he owned every inch of you. You eventually drag yourself out of bed, your legs unsteady, and pad to the bathroom. The tub is huge, the kind of thing you’d only ever seen in movies, and you don’t think twice before running the water, pouring in a generous stream of lavender bubble bath from the bottle on the counter. You sink into the warmth with a soft moan, letting the water ease the tightness in your thighs, the soreness in your hips. Every shift of your body reminds you of what just happened—of how thoroughly he fucked you, how deeply he filled you, how completely he took you apart.

You stay in the bath until the water starts to cool, then dry off and wrap yourself in one of the fluffy white robes hanging by the door. You pour yourself a glass of champagne from the bottle chilling by the window and collapse onto the bed again, legs curled under you, robe slipping off one shoulder. You stare at the city lights outside the window, the skyline glowing and endless. You feel expensive. Adored. Used and treasured at the same time. The kind of full you didn’t know you were craving.

Your phone buzzes on the nightstand.

You grab it lazily, still smiling.

Nanami has sent you $10,000.

You stare.

You’re up in a flash, jumping on the bed like a maniac, the robe falling off as you laugh and squeal and spin yourself dizzy. You don’t even care. You roll across the mattress, kick your legs in the air, and scream into a pillow. Then you check again—just to be sure. It’s still there. Ten. Thousand. Dollars.

You sink back against the pillows, grinning like a fool, and take a long, slow sip of champagne.

This is the best night of your life.

The weekend melts away in a blur of room service and luxury. You spend hours soaking in the tub, order dessert with every meal, and sleep tangled in hotel sheets that smell like him. You keep your phone close, reading and rereading every message he sends. He doesn’t disappear. He checks in constantly. Tells you how proud he is. How badly he wants you again. How he’s counting the hours until next time.

By Monday morning, you’re still sore. Still giddy. You barely hear your alarm over the buzz of your phone. You get ready for class with your phone in your hand the entire time, texting back between sips of coffee.

I need you again this weekend. Same hotel. I want you on your knees when I walk in.

I can still feel you. Still smell you. I’m not done with you.

You’re practically floating when you meet up with Nobara and Maki in the courtyard.

“You’re glowing,” Maki says. “Who are you texting?”

Nobara leans in to peek. You pull your phone away with a smirk.

“No one.”

“She’s lying,” Maki says. “It’s totally a sugar daddy. Look at her.” She jokes.

You laugh. Shrug. Say nothing.

Because they’re right. And you’re not giving up your secret that easy. The three of you head to class, sliding into your usual seats as you pull out your laptop. You open a blank doc, fingers still dancing over your phone under the table.

I want your pussy on my mouth the second I see you again.

You bite your lip, cheeks hot, and set your phone face-down as the door opens.

Footsteps. A soft clearing of a throat.

You look up and freeze.

Nanami Kento walks to the front of the classroom, calm and collected, setting his briefcase on the podium like he’s done it a hundred times. He’s in a fitted suit, glasses perched on his nose, hair neat and perfect.

He adjusts his tie. Opens his laptop. Looks up.

His eyes meet yours.

He doesn’t flinch. Doesn’t falter. Just offers the faintest flicker of a smile.

“Good morning, everyone,” he says smoothly. “Welcome to Ethics in Literature.

Your stomach drops through the floor.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

Late Night Games (18+)

Bakugou x F!Reader Pro hero, angst if you squint?

Word Count: 1.7k

Bakugou gets you a sex toy and can't stop thinking about it. Will his favorite cam girl be able to get you off his mind?

Bakugou scrolls through your shopping app lazily. His vision swims slightly as pictures of dildos and vibrators fly up the screen. It’s all part of the game — you landed on space to give someone else your phone and let them purchase a toy for you using your credit card, leaving the definition of ‘toy’ up to the buyer, all under a certain price of course. What wasn’t part of the game was him imagining what you would look like fucking yourself with it; the glow flushing your cheeks as your back arches, the wanton moan that would leave your lips.

“Bakugou, hurry up,” you pout and tip some more of Kaminari’s electric purple concoction — his signature drink for the evening — into your mouth. “How hard is it?”

Hard enough. He ignores the slight tightening in his pants. Shifting, he hopes you didn’t notice the ever-growing bulge. “All this shit’s expensive. Does it have to be $20?”

“That’s what it says, man,” Kirishima smirks. His thumb and forefinger harden long enough to pop the top off his beer. 

“This game is stupid,” Bakugou grumbles. He scrolls faster. To be honest, he hadn’t been looking at the prices — he’d been too busy thinking of you; someone he wants but can’t have. Someone who only visits him in the quiet hours of the night as he drifts off to sleep, your phantom hand wrapped around his own as he tries to envision you jacking him off. Someone he won’t let himself have.

No, you’re not meant for his life. The lights, the scrutiny, the questions he’s learned to block out. You’re a sweet thing and he won’t ruin you that way. 

His attention returns to your phone in his hand. A bright orange vibrator with a black X at the base. His own product. He’d hated the thought of selling out and slapping his name on a fucking sex toy, but it’d taken off and made it possible for him to put a down payment on a penthouse near his work. Now though, he thinks of you pumping his product in and out of yourself. And that makes it all worth it.

It’s a little more than the game says — $80 more to be precise, but he can cover this purchase. No one will know.

“It’s done,” he says and closes your phone. “No peeking.”

“You’re no fun,” you playfully pout, but you tuck your phone away. “Who’s next? Ochako?”

Bakugou sinks back into the couch, the rush of you wearing off. He half watches as Ochako rolls and lands on a space saying she has to give the person to her right, Kirishima, a ten second lap dance. Both their cheeks are brighter by the end of it, but Bakugou can’t find it in himself to join Mina and Sero in heckling them.

He lasts another half hour before abruptly standing and excusing himself.

In his stupor, he goes through the motions of getting himself home, not really paying attention to anyone around him. His penthouse is cool and quiet — everything he needs after a day of loud action. 

Bakugou sits in front of his computer and stares at the monitor. You’re still on his mind, and as much as he tries, he can’t get the fantasy of you writhing around his cock out of his head. His fingers fly to a website he’s visited countless times before. A site where he found an angel of a cam girl whose voice reminds him of yours if he doesn’t focus on it too hard and he can pretend that it’s you on the other side of the screen in lingerie teasing him.

Disappointment greets him as her schedule says she’s away for the next couple of days. 

He sits there for a moment, fatigue from the day settling in around him like a wet blanket. Maybe it’s for the best that he goes to bed instead of shelling out money to be the top contributor on yet another stream.

Three days later

Bakugou steps out of the bathroom, steam pouring out around him. A few droplets of water roll down his chest. Today had been a shitshow. Not only did he accidentally destroy a load bearing wall of a building that housed a law firm, his patrol partner called out sick and he was stuck with some rando rookie. The boss called it a ‘mentorship’ opportunity. The only thing he managed to mentor the rookie in was how to piss off your boss and the most powerful law firm in the city, and how to stand tall while everyone yelled at him.

He needs to relax and he needs to relax now.

Pulling on a comfy pair of sweats, he sits at his computer and opens the desk drawer. With all the reverence of a religious ceremony, he sets a bottle of lube and tissues on his desk, and pulls on his top-of-the-line headset. He’d paid a premium once he’d found his favorite cam girl so he could all but inject her voice into his body.

With her show about to start, and Bakugou preps himself.

“Hey everyone,” her sultry voice caresses his ears, “Sorry I was gone for so long.” Soft black lace cups her breasts and hangs low on her hips. She runs her hands up and down her sides, nails dragging on the fragile fabric.

New lingerie Angel? Bakugou types out and attaches a generous donation. Time to put the fucking extras watching in their place. Her red lips curl into a smile. Only he gets to call her Angel.

“Good to see you Number One,” she says. Hearing his screen name and nickname as her top contributor for over two years fall from her lips shoots right to his cock. “I did get some new pieces I can’t wait to show off over the next couple shows. And that’s not the only thing.” She leans over, giving the camera a close up shot of her cleavage.

Bakugou slowly pumps his cock at the sight. If he let his mind wander enough, he could pretend it was your chest. He’d tear the lace off effortlessly and run his hands over you, coaxing your nipples into stiff peaks and leave you wanting – begging – for more.

Settling back on her pale pink blanket, she brings a slim box up to her microphone and taps manicured nails against it.

“I recently came into possession of a new toy as well,” she says sweetly. “Haven’t even unboxed it yet, but I don’t know if we’re ready for that yet.” Her smile falls into a practiced pout as she sets the box down out of view. Donations flood in, all begging her to show it off and use it.

He gets it. This is how she makes money. But their small voices aren’t going to be the ones to get her to do it. 

C’mon Angel, show us what ya got? He doubles his previous donation. The corner of her mouth ticks up.

“Since you asked so nicely,” she says and holds the box up to the camera, “I got the latest Dynamight vibrator. I heard this is modeled after the man himself.” She continues talking while she unboxes it, but Bakugou can’t hear her over the ringing in his ears. 

What were the chances that you and his favorite cam girl got the same vibrator he had bought you? Yours should’ve arrived today, and if… No. No, there’s no way… But…

His fingers fly across the keyboard. Get that today Angel?

She stops running her fingers up the bright orange shaft and smiles. “I did! It arrived an hour ago and I knew I needed to bring it tonight.”

No.

With shaky hands, he picks up his phone and types a message. All he needs to do is hit send. If he’s mistaken, he can play it off. But if he’s right… fuck.

[Bakugou]    >> Angel?

He watches his computer monitor. His favorite cam girl, the one he chose for her voice and the fantasy she could give him, the one who was a replacement for the girl he really wants, freezes. Her playful smile turns brittle.

Fuck.

“I’m sorry loves,” she says quickly, “There’s an emergency, but I’ll be back tomorrow, and maybe I’ll stay on extra late, just for you.” Her camera goes dark. Donations fly in, all begging her to come back, asking what happened. 

Bakugou stares, icy dread slithering down his spine.

[Private Audience Requested from Angel]

He shouldn’t have said anything. He could have pretended not to have noticed the similarities. He could’ve been halfway to heaven with his fist wrapped around his cock.

Nevertheless, he accepts the incoming call, well aware that his account is getting charged for what would no doubt be an unpleasant conversation. 

His Angel sits in front of the camera, covered up in a gray hoodie.

“Number One,” she says, all sexy energy gone from her voice. “Turn on your camera.”

Don’t have it He types back.

“Bullshit,” she crosses her arms, “I know you do. You’ve bought enough private shows from me. I’ve seen your cock as you jack yourself off. Turn on your fucking camera.”

Reluctantly, Bakugou does. He keeps it angled to show below his neck. 

“Show me your face.” It’s not a request. 

Show me yours.

“You know I don’t show more than my mouth.”

Then I’m not showing mine

Her mouth, the one Bakugou has imagined wrapped around his length, thins into a disapproving frown. “Well, Number One, then you’ll have to find someone else to shower with your donations.”

Block. She means to block. And she’ll block any other account he makes too. She’d know it’s him — he’s incapable of not being first, being the most prominent person in a room, throwing his money around.

WAIT

He leans forward and scrambles for his camera. Tilting it to his face, he almost feels embarrassed for how he looks in the preview on his end. Panicked. Fearful. Shame.

“Bakugou.” His Angel’s camera tilts up too to see a black and gold mask he’s caught glimpses of before. She removes the mask, and Bakugou watches your face stare back at him, just as pained as he is.

cool tips and stuff in sky:cotl part 2

YIPPEE let's go- some of these might be well-known, so sorry about that (having to upload the videos was a pain plus only being allowed to have one video uploaded but I improvised so sorry for the inconvenience-)

In Hidden Forest, you can go to the last tower with all the white candles and the rain will be turned off in that area, meaning that you can explore the area without worrying about the rain (the water you can swim in in the area still looks like it has rain when it doesn't).

In Daylight Prairie, you can go above the clouds.

If you have a daily task like "__ a friend", you can use the guides in the realms to help since they count as friends. (I don't have a picture or video on hand, but it works. I tried it with the Trials Guide.)

If you switch your flight mode while landing for something, you can get better control of where you land.

The wax from the bundle of candles always refills your light no matter how many wedges of light you have.

The yellow stars on the map are in the general direction of where the winged light spirits are, but it's not all that reliable.

If you want to get up somewhere high with your winged light boosts, it's better to use the first flight mode (i don't know what they're called) from a distance to get up higher than the second mode (you just have to be somewhat decent with controlling unlike me).

Also, you can use your camera to help your character turn better in the game.

Holding the jump key and the key to switch flight modes automatically puts you in the faster flight mode when you fly.

Even though it takes a long time to get to because of how many people you need, finishing the Treehouse guide's tasks makes it where it doesn't rain in the Treehouse area anymore.

The realm with the daily tasks for it that day has the eyes lit up on the gate.

The spirit you need for the daily quest appears like you haven't unlocked it yet even if you have before the daily tasks. (I don't have a picture on hand since I already did the spirit for today, but you know what I mean).

If you want to put something on the wall of your nest, but the rotation doesn't make it look right, put something on the wall and then place the item on there to make it look like it's on the wall.

Not a tip, but I just love the little diving animation for no reason like look at him go (I named him Flint).

Also not a tip, but you can merge into things in your nest if you enter and stand where a piece of furniture is before it loads in. You won't get permanently stuck and you can move out of it easily.

Also catapult in Golden Wasteland

Some cool websites you can use for helping you with Sky include these two:

The fandom wiki helps as well, but it's pretty laggy for me so I'd recommend it if your device can handle it.

Also unpopular opinion: this game would make for a really good fan series in the sense of the style, the emotes, and the locations (if someone wants to do that, hit me up because I want to join-)

Sorry there's so much info on here, I love the game too much.

The Power of Site Auditing: Unveiling the Secrets

Hey, awesome folks It's your digital marketing agency in dwarka, vrankup! 🌟 Wanna dive into the world of site auditing? Buckle up 'cause we're about to take a wild ride through this whole deal. If you're scratching your head, wondering what the heck site auditing even is, no worries – I got your back. Imagine this: your website's like your crib, right? And just like you gotta clean up your room every now and then, your site needs a good ol' check-up too. That's where site auditing struts in, making sure your digital crib is A-OK.

## Site Auditing Demystified

Okay, so what's this site auditing mumbo jumbo? It's basically like when you give your car a thorough once-over – checking the tires, oil, brakes, the whole shebang. Well, a site audit does that, but for your website. It's like an online detective mission where you figure out what's working, what's not, and how to make your website a total rockstar.

## Uncovering the Hidden Juicy Bits

Imagine your website's a cool old attic, packed with all sorts of cool stuff. But, you know, it can also get a bit messy up there. A site audit's like going through all those dusty boxes, finding those rad treasures you forgot about. Broken links? Nah, we ain't got time for those. We're hunting down forgotten pages and giving 'em a fresh coat of digital paint.

## The Magic of Content

Hold up, let's talk about content. Your website's like a big, interactive storybook, and the words you put on it? They're like the magic spells that captivate your visitors. During a site audit, you're like the content wizard, making sure your spells are top-notch. Is your content telling the right tale? Is it speaking to your peeps? A site audit sorts all that out, making sure your website's words are pure gold.

## Speed: Fasten Your Digital Seatbelt

You ever been stuck in traffic, just waiting forever? Ain't nobody got time for that, especially on the internet highway. Site speed's the superhero that zooms your visitors to where they wanna go, pronto. A site audit's like giving your site a turbo boost – finding what's slowing things down and making sure your pages load faster than a sneeze.

## User Experience: Making it Easy Peasy

Picture this: you're on a crazy cool adventure, but you got no clue where you're going. Not fun, right? Your website's gotta be easy to navigate, like a well-marked trail. A site audit's like the mapmaker, ensuring your visitors sail smoothly through your digital wonderland. No more lost souls – just happy explorers.

## SEO: The Way to be Seen

Yo, wanna be the star of the show? You gotta strut your stuff where everyone can see ya. SEO's like your backstage pass to fame, and a site audit's your personal coach. It sniffs out keywords, polishes your tags, and gets you all ready to shine on that search engine stage.

## Wrapping Up the Party

You made it, legends! You just conquered the wild ride of site auditing. You've got the know-how to turn your digital pad into a rockin' hotspot. But guess what? Site auditing ain't a one-hit wonder. Keep coming back to it, keep fine-tuning your crib, and keep blowing minds with your awesome website. So go out there, fellow rockstars, and keep slaying the digital game! 🚀🎸

Finding the Right Web Designer in Bangalore: Why Hello Errors Stands Out

In a bustling tech hub like Bangalore, where startups emerge every day and established businesses push for stronger digital identities, having a professionally designed website isn’t a choice—it’s a necessity. Your website is your brand’s digital storefront. And to make a lasting impression, you need a highly skilled Web Designer in Bangalore who understands the unique intersection of aesthetics, functionality, and business strategy.

This is where Hello Errors comes into play—a full-service digital solutions company that's redefining what web design means for Bangalore-based businesses.

Why Web Design is More Than Just Looks

A common misconception is that web design is only about how a site looks. In truth, it's about how it works, how it feels, and how it performs. A great Web Designer in Bangalore doesn’t just give you a pretty layout; they engineer a full experience tailored to your customers’ behavior and expectations.

Here’s what makes a truly impactful web design:

Loading Speed: Faster sites reduce bounce rates.

Accessibility: Websites should cater to users of all abilities.

Structure: Logical content flow boosts user experience.

Clarity: Each section should answer a user’s questions.

At Hello Errors, we integrate all these aspects while designing, making us one of the most user-centric Web Designers in Bangalore.

Bangalore's Competitive Edge: Why Your Web Presence Matters

Bangalore is known for its innovation, diversity, and competitive business landscape. In such a dynamic environment, your website must stand out not just locally, but also on a global stage. Whether you’re a fintech company in JP Nagar or a boutique fashion brand in Indiranagar, a compelling digital identity is your strongest asset.

Hello Errors understands the pulse of Bangalore’s digital culture. We blend local market insight with global design trends to help businesses position themselves with confidence.

These capabilities allow us to think big picture while handling the fine details that make your site run efficiently and look incredible.

Custom Design vs. Templates: Why Custom Wins

There’s a world of difference between a template-based website and a custom-built one. While templates are quick and cheap, they often come with limitations that can harm your brand.

A custom design, on the other hand, gives you:

Brand-specific identity

Unique user journey

Better loading performance

SEO-friendlier architecture

As a top-tier Web Designer in Bangalore, Hello Errors focuses exclusively on custom-built platforms tailored for long-term brand success.

Visual consistency

Well-structured content hierarchy

Testimonials, ratings, and real-time reviews

Security integrations (SSL, GDPR readiness)

We’ve helped numerous Bangalore businesses—from consultants to SaaS companies—build trust and convert visitors into loyal customers.

Case Snapshot: How Hello Errors Helped a Yoga Studio Flourish Online

Challenge: A yoga studio in Malleshwaram had no digital presence.

Solution:

Designed a serene, responsive website with calming animations

Embedded scheduling and online class booking functionality

Integrated SEO to rank for “Yoga Classes in Bangalore”

Set up a blog and community portal

Results:

3x increase in client bookings within two months

50% of classes filled via online registrations

That’s the kind of transformation only a thoughtful Web Designer in Bangalore like Hello Errors can deliver.

Check Their Portfolio: Do they have variety and quality?

Look at Reviews: Testimonials tell the real story.

Ask About UX & SEO: Are they considering functionality or just looks?

Test Their Sites: Visit their past projects—are they fast and responsive?

Communication Matters: Can they understand your vision?

Shopify KPIs Every Virtual Assistant Should Track for a 2025 Dashboard

Introduction

In eCommerce, data is king. Knowing what’s happening in your store helps you make better decisions. For Shopify businesses, the right numbers reveal what works—and what doesn’t. That’s where virtual assistants come in. VAs monitor these numbers regularly to keep the store growing.

In 2025, Shopify analytics are more powerful than ever. New tools and features show hidden trends and areas for improvement. It’s essential that VAs understand which KPIs are most important. This article covers key metrics, tools, and strategies to create a high-impact KPI dashboard that drives results.

Understanding Shopify KPIs: The Foundation for Success

KPI stands for Key Performance Indicator. These are measurable values that show how well your store is doing. Think of KPIs as the dashboard lights in a car—they tell you when something needs attention.

They guide your store’s strategy. For example, if sales drop, analyzing the right KPIs shows why and helps fix the issue. As a VA, tracking and reporting these numbers keeps everyone aligned with goals.

Key Benefits of Tracking Shopify KPIs

Boost sales and keep customers coming back.

Make operations smoother and faster.

Use data to decide on marketing or new products.

How to Set Clear KPI Goals

Start by matching KPIs to your store’s big-picture goals. Use the SMART method—make goals Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. Adjust KPIs for your store size and niche. A small niche store might focus more on customer loyalty, while a large store emphasizes traffic.

Essential Shopify KPIs Virtual Assistants Must Track in 2025

Knowing which metrics matter most can feel overwhelming. Focus on the top KPIs that directly impact your store’s growth and profitability.

Sales Performance KPIs

Total Sales & Revenue

Total sales show how much money your store makes in a period. This simple number helps identify if your marketing efforts work. Watch for trends and anomalies—are sales rising, or did a campaign slash revenue unexpectedly?

Average Order Value (AOV)

AOV tells you how much each customer spends. Increasing AOV boosts profit without new customer acquisition. Upsell or bundle products to encourage larger purchases.

Conversion Rate

Conversion rate shows how many visitors buy. In 2025, the average Shopify store ranges from 1.5% to 3%. Improving your checkout process, reducing friction, and offering clear shipping info can lift this rate.

Customer Behavior & Engagement Metrics

Customer Lifetime Value (CLV)

CLV measures how much a customer spends over their entire relationship with your store. A higher CLV means more profit per customer. To improve it, focus on loyalty programs and personalized marketing.

Repeat Purchase Rate

This metric indicates how many customers buy again. It’s a strong sign of loyalty. Offer discounts or exclusive products to keep them coming back.

Cart Abandonment Rate

Many shoppers add items but leave before buying. Industry averages sit around 70%. Reduce it by simplifying checkout, offering clear shipping costs, and sending follow-up emails.

Traffic & Acquisition Metrics

Website Traffic & Sources

Track where your visitors come from—Google, social media, email links. High-quality traffic from relevant sources converts better. Focus on channels that bring in engaged visitors.

Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)

This calculates how much it costs to gain each new customer. Lowering CAC boosts profits. Optimize your ad spend, improve organic SEO, and nurture organic traffic.

Bounce Rate & Session Duration

Bounce rate shows how many leave quickly. Session duration indicates engagement. Improve these by fast-loading pages, good design, and clear calls to action.

Operational & Inventory KPIs

Inventory Turnover Rate

It measures how often stock sells out and gets replenished. Keep a healthy balance—too much stock ties up money, too little causes delays. Regularly review sales trends to forecast inventory needs.

Fulfillment & Shipping Metrics

Fast, accurate shipping keeps customers happy. Track delivery times and errors. Reducing delays and mistakes improves reviews and loyalty.

Refund & Return Rates

High rates hint at product issues or bad descriptions. Reduce returns by improving product photos, descriptions, and quality checks.

Tools & Dashboards for Tracking Shopify KPIs in 2025

The right tools make KPI tracking easier. Shopify’s built-in reports are helpful, but adding Google Analytics and third-party apps adds depth.

Setting Up an Effective KPI Dashboard

Look for tools that automate data pulls, so you spend less time updating reports. Custom dashboards focusing on your store’s priorities keep everyone on track. For example, a dashboard might highlight sales trends, top products, and traffic sources.

Data Analysis and Actionable Insights

Don’t just look at numbers—interpret them. Spot patterns, outliers, and opportunities. For instance, a sudden drop in conversion might mean checkout pages need fixing. Use data to decide what to tweak next.

Best Practices for Virtual Assistants in KPI Monitoring

Make KPI reviews a regular routine. Daily checks for urgent issues, weekly deep dives, and monthly reviews for overall health work well. Share these findings with team members to keep everyone updated.

Stay curious. Shopify updates new features often, so keep learning. The more you know, the better your recommendations.

Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them

Avoid focusing solely on vanity metrics like total visitors. Always check what those visitors do—are they buying? Don’t ignore the context behind numbers. Also, don’t overload dashboards with data. Keep it simple and relevant to serious business goals.

Tips for Communicating KPIs Effectively

Use clear visuals—charts and graphs attract attention. Link numbers back to business goals to show value. Tell stories with data—show how solutions improved performance or highlight danger zones that need quick action.

Conclusion

Tracking the right Shopify KPIs in 2025 is vital for online store success. Virtual assistants who master KPI analysis become invaluable. They help identify growth opportunities, fix problems fast, and keep strategy aligned.

Stay updated on new tools and data trends. Refine your KPI approach regularly. A thoughtful dashboard, clear communication, and continuous learning will keep your Shopify store ahead. Start today—the numbers are the key to long-term growth and success.

How an SEO Company Helps Improve User Experience and Core Web Vitals

When we think of SEO, we often picture keywords, backlinks, and rankings. But there’s a critical component that’s just as important—user experience. In fact, Google has made it clear that Core Web Vitals, which measure real-world user experience on your website, are ranking factors. A skilled SEO company understands this and works to optimize not just your visibility but how users interact with your site. If you're working with an experienced SEO company in Pune, you’ll likely see improvements not just in traffic, but in how your site performs and engages users.

What Are Core Web Vitals?

Core Web Vitals are a set of metrics defined by Google to assess user experience. They include:

Largest Contentful Paint (LCP): Measures loading performance.

First Input Delay (FID): Measures interactivity.

Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS): Measures visual stability.

Together, these metrics provide a snapshot of how smoothly and quickly your site delivers content to users.

How an SEO Company Enhances These Metrics

1. Faster Loading Speeds

Slow websites frustrate users and lead to higher bounce rates. SEO companies work to reduce server response times, optimize images, and minimize unnecessary scripts to improve LCP. A faster site not only meets Google's standards but also keeps visitors engaged.

2. Mobile Optimization

With mobile-first indexing in place, your site’s mobile performance is crucial. A professional SEO company ensures your website is responsive and performs well across devices, directly improving user experience and your Core Web Vitals score.

3. Clean, Stable Design

Ever clicked a button only to have it shift on the screen? That’s poor CLS at work. SEO experts fix layout shifts by defining image dimensions, using stable containers, and avoiding intrusive popups, making for a more pleasant browsing experience.

4. Improved Interactivity

A laggy site makes users feel disconnected. Reducing FID involves optimizing JavaScript execution and removing unnecessary plugins. A good SEO company handles these technical tweaks to make your site feel responsive and smooth.

5. Better Navigation and Structure

SEO isn’t just about pleasing search engines—it’s about creating a seamless path for users to find what they need. From intuitive menus to logical content structure, SEO professionals enhance site usability alongside technical SEO.

Why It Matters for Your Business

Improving user experience and Core Web Vitals doesn’t just boost your rankings—it builds trust. Users are more likely to stay, engage, and convert on a website that feels fast, stable, and easy to use. That’s why choosing the right SEO company in Pune can have a significant impact on your brand’s online success.

Plugin Types for Better Website Performance in 2025

In 2025, website performance is more important than ever. A fast website keeps visitors happy and helps you rank higher on Google. But sometimes, websites get slow because of too many or bad plugins.

Plugins are tools that add features to your website. They can help your site do cool things. But if you pick the wrong plugins, your site can slow down or even break.

This article will explain the best plugin types to use in 2025 for a fast, smooth website. We will share tips on how to choose, install, and manage plugins safely. Everything is written in simple English so anyone can understand.

Why Website Performance Matters in 2025

A slow website is like a slow store. Visitors don’t want to wait. They leave and go somewhere else. Google also notices slow websites and ranks them lower in search results.

Good website speed means:

Visitors stay longer

You get more sales or sign-ups

Google ranks you higher

Your site works well on phones and tablets

Using the right plugins can help your website stay fast and secure. Let’s learn about the best plugin types.

1. Caching Plugins: Speed Up Your Pages

What are caching plugins?

Caching plugins save a copy of your website pages after the first visitor loads them. Next visitors see the saved copy, which loads much faster because the website doesn’t have to build the page again.

Why use caching plugins?

Makes pages load super fast

Reduces the work your server has to do

Improves Google rankings because speed matters

Helps handle lots of visitors without crashing

Popular caching plugins

WP Rocket: Easy to use, popular for WordPress

Improves user experience with quicker image display

Popular plugins

ShortPixel: Compresses images well with WebP support

Smush: Free and easy to use

Imagify: Good for bulk image optimization

Pro tip

Use the WebP image format for 2025. WebP files are smaller but still look great. Many plugins now convert images to WebP automatically.

3. Lazy Load Plugins: Load Images Only When Needed

What is lazy loading?

Lazy loading means images and videos only load when a user scrolls down to see them. This reduces initial page load time.

Benefits

Faster first load time

Saves user data and bandwidth

Perfect for websites with many images or videos

Popular plugins

Why Website Developers Are Embracing AI to Enhance User Experience?

Websites are much more than just online brochures in the current digital era. They are crucial platforms that promote growth, sales, and user engagement.

The problem is that website developers are under pressure to keep up with users' expectations for more individualized, quick, and seamless experiences. That is where Artificial Intelligence (AI) comes in.

AI is not just another tech buzzword. It is rapidly transforming how websites are designed, developed, and experienced. If you are considering upgrading your website, hire web developers who can integrate AI effectively.

This article will explore why AI is becoming the secret weapon for developers looking to elevate user experience.

AI in Web Development

AI has become a revolution for web developers. Its endless possibilities are endless, from personalized content to smarter website interactions. AI is not only for tech giants anymore—it is accessible to all developers, regardless of project size.

With tools like machine learning and natural language processing, hire website developers who can leverage these AI technologies. They can create websites that adjust based on user behaviour in real time, offering a more engaging and responsive experience.

This shift is not just about cool tech but about making websites more intuitive and enjoyable for users.

Improved Personalization:- AI Understanding Your User.

Imagine a website that understands your preferences before you even speak. Sounds futuristic, right? Well, AI is already making that possible. AI tools can deliver personalized content and recommendations by tracking user behaviour, making each visit feel unique. 

For example, if you visit an e-commerce website, AI can suggest products you will likely buy based on your previous purchases or browsing history. This personalization is not just about improving user experience—it also boosts engagement and increases conversion rates.

If you want to ensure your website speaks to your users on a personal level, hire web developers who can harness the power of AI to predict user actions and deliver precisely what they need, even before they realize it.

Faster Load Times & Seamless Navigation with AI

We have all been there—waiting for a website to load, watching that little spinning wheel, and thinking, “I could have done something else in the time it takes to load this page.” Speed matters. 53% of mobile users abandon a site if it takes more than 3 seconds to load.

AI is here to help. Your website will load more quickly and function more smoothly if it optimizes pictures, scripts, and server load balancing. An AI-powered tool called predictive loading can even load material before a user clicks, cutting down on waiting time. Happy users translate into greater conversions, and a speedier website translates into happier users.

When you are ready to scale up, hire website developers skilled at using AI to make your website lightning-fast without compromising quality.

AI-Powered Chatbots: The Future of Customer Support

Gone are the days of long waiting times for customer service responses. With AI-powered chatbots, users can get instant support 24/7.

AI-powered chatbots comprehend user inquiries and provide answers in an instant without human intervention. Chatbots can improve customer service by responding to often asked queries and assisting customers with complicated procedures. Increased revenue, improved customer satisfaction, and lower bounce rates are the results of this.

If you want to offer round-the-clock customer support without breaking the bank, hire web developers who can integrate AI-powered chatbots into your website for seamless service.

Data-Driven Insights: Enhancing UX Design

Have you ever wondered what is working on your website? Well, with AI, you don’t have to guess anymore. 

Developers can gain important insights from the analysis of user data by AI-driven tools that show how users engage with a website. These observations can help inform design choices, such as which features people find appealing and which they disregard. By using AI to monitor user preferences and behavior, developers can make constant improvements to websites, guaranteeing a better user experience.

When you hire website developers, make sure they can tap into these AI tools to create designs that resonate with your audience and keep them coming back for more.

Enhanced Security with AI

Website security is always a major worry, and staying ahead of the curve is more crucial than ever due to the rise in cyber threats. In real time, AI can identify security risks, spot odd behavior patterns, and even anticipate possible weaknesses.

AI-powered security systems can identify fraudulent activity, block suspicious logins, and protect sensitive user data. It is not just about keeping your site safe but about building trust with your users. AI offers a proactive approach to security, ensuring that your website stays protected against threats 24/7.

So, if security is on your mind, hire web developers who can implement AI solutions to safeguard your site and your users.

Challenges and Ethical Considerations of AI in Web Development.

Although AI has many fascinating potential applications, it also has drawbacks. Data privacy is one of the main issues. For AI technologies to work properly, data is necessary, but it must be handled wisely. 

Additionally crucial are ethical factors, such as preventing bias in AI algorithms. To keep websites transparent and reliable, developers need to be aware of how AI gathers, keeps, and uses user data.

When using AI, they must be aware of these difficulties and give ethical behavior first priority. Maintaining consumers' trust and making sure AI works for them rather than against them are two benefits of a responsible AI approach.

Before hiring website developers, make sure they are aware of these ethical considerations and are committed to using AI to benefit both your business and your users.

Summing Up!

AI is no longer a “nice to have”—it’s a must-have. As technology evolves, so will how AI enhances the user experience. From personalized content to faster load times and more secure websites, AI is revolutionizing the world of web development.

If you want to stay ahead of the curve and create a website that’s intuitive, fast, and secure, hire web developers who understand the power of AI and can integrate it seamlessly into your site.

Website developers can fully utilize AI and create websites with excellent user experiences by following these steps. Without a question, the future of web development will be shaped by the combination of AI and careful, user-centric design.

4 Simple Methods to Shrink Your JPEGs

Reducing the size of JPEG images is crucial for anybody looking to increase website loading speed or conserve storage space. Smaller JPEGs use less bandwidth, load more quickly, and are simpler to share. Whether preparing images for your website, emailing them, or just trying to save storage space on your computer, shrinking your JPEG files can be a highly useful skill. In this extensive tutorial, we'll be going through four easy steps on how to reduce your JPEGs and some answers to questions people have when trying to shrink them.

Before you see the real methods for shrinking your JPEG files, though, you first understand how JPEGs function and why you would want to reduce their size.

What is a JPEG and How Does it Work?

In 1992, a compression standard known as JPEG, or Joint Photographic Experts Group, was developed. JPEG is amongst the most prevalent image representation forms on the web and in photography. It's popular because the file size for images can decrease without compromising quality.

JPEG is a lossy compression that discards some of the information from the original image while compressing. Sometimes, this data loss in the given image goes unnoticed by the human eye when the compression is moderate; however, the better you compress a JPEG, the more significant the loss in quality becomes.

JPEG compression is done by discarding less important visual information, such as small color details that the human eye is not very sensitive to. That allows it to compress significantly in file size, while being mostly useful with images having complex color patterns, such as photos. Still, JPEG-compressed images are quite large, so they may sometimes be shrunk further for efficient storage and faster online loading.

Learn how to make your photos look cool in Google Slides.

Why Shrink Your JPEG Images?

Here are a few main reasons for compressing a JPEG image.

Saving Storage Space: Generally, larger sizes of JPEG consume much of your computer's disk space on your phone or even the cloud storage; by shrinking JPEG, you allow more free space for other files to reside.

Faster Website Load Times: For a website owner, large image files can make your web page take longer to load. Smaller JPEGs help enhance page load times, which can be significant for user experience and search engine optimization.

Easier Sharing: Smaller JPEGs are easier to share through email, messaging, or even social networks. It requires less bandwidth and is uploaded much faster.

Faster Backups: The smaller sizes of the file will take much less time to upload to either cloud storage or even to an external hard drive, hence offering faster and quicker backups.

Effortlessly enhance your images using PhotoCut’s AI Image Upscaler.

How to Shrink a JPEG on Windows?

In case you need to shrink a JPEG on your Windows PC, there is an easy way around it. One easy tool is the Photos app. You don't need to download anything else; you can accomplish anything with only one app. This is the process for compressing a JPEG on a Windows PC.

On your PC, find the JPEG picture you want to compress. Double-clicking on it will launch the Photos app by default.

Tap Resize from the drop-down menu that appears after clicking the three dots in the Photos app's top right corner.

You have a range of preset sizes from which you can choose. For example, Small, Medium, or Large; or else, you could go for Define Custom Dimensions so you can put in your preferred pixel dimensions. Be sure to tick the Maintain aspect ratio so the image isn't distorted.

Once you've reduced the size of the image, click Save As and save your new, smaller JPEG file. This file will take up much less storage space but should remain at an acceptable quality level.

Quickly resizing your JPEGs without the need for additional software is possible using the Photos app.

How to Shrink a JPEG on a Mac?

If you're a Mac user, you can utilize Preview to reduce the size of your JPEG file. Here's what you ought to do:

Open Preview and locate the JPEG image you want to shrink. You do this simply by double-clicking on the JPEG image.

Preview View the Tools menu at the top of the page and select Adjust Size. You will see a dialog box where you may adjust the image's pixel size by either entering individual pixel values or changing them by a percentage. It is typically adequate to resize an image to around 50–60% of its original size for Web use.

The file size will automatically appear in the Resolution section of Preview. This will give you an idea of the space you have saved.

Once you've resized it as per your requirement, click OK to let it save the image in the compressed version. You'll then be able to share or upload it easily due to its now decreased size.

Preview is a dependable tool for shrinking JPEGs on your Mac with a simple process and time-saving efficiency.

How to Shrink a JPEG in Photoshop?

Adobe Photoshop is an excellent image editor program, containing the most elaborate tools for the compression and resizing of JPEG images. Below is how you can simply use Photoshop to shrink JPEG by following the following steps:

Open Photoshop and the JPEG image you want to compress.

In the top menu of the screen go to Image Size. In this dialog box, you can now change the Resolution to 72 PPI if you are doing web use. You can now also change the Width and Height dimensions as you need.

Photoshop has many resampling methods that control how the pixels get adjusted when you resize the image. For most high-quality output, Bicubic Sharper is usually your best bet.

Now compress the JPEG a bit by selecting File > Save for Web. Here you will find a Quality slider with which you can get the right balance between the size of your file and image quality. The usual quality for web use would be 60-80%.

Once you have it the way you want it, click on Save to save your compressed JPEG file.

This offers a great deal of control over the compression and resizing process, making Photoshop the best for professional photographers or those who require high-quality adjustments in images.

How to Shrink a JPEG Using an Online Compressor?

For someone who needs to compress an image and doesn't need software for installation, they can use online compressors. Here is one very popular and effective tool, PhotoCut's Online Image Compressor, and how you can compress your JPEG using an online tool:

Go to PhotoCut's online compressor, and upload the JPEG you'd like to shrink.

Using an internet connection, the tool will automatically determine your image's dimensions. Manually enter the width, height, or percentage to resize the image. Just remember that checking Maintain Proportions will avoid any distortion.

This will download the resized image once it compresses the photo. The file will now be smaller, and faster to upload, or share online.

Online compressors are fast and easy to use, having no technical requirements attached to their use. They are perfect for users who have to shrink JPEGs on the go.

Tips for Compressing JPEGs Without Losing Quality

Shrinking JPEGs can easily result in a great loss of quality. Here are a few simple tips on compressing JPEG without sacrificing too much visual integrity.

Choose the Right Compression Level: JPEG also gives you the option to change compression. A higher degree of compression of 80-90% will minimize loss of quality; however, the file will be much larger. A lower degree of compression of 50-60% will provide a much smaller file but with visible artifacts like blurring.

Crop the Image: If an image has too much white space or blank regions, crop it before compressing. This will save on file size and deliver the salient parts of the image.

Choose the Correct Format: PNG for transparent pictures and GIF for animations are options if you don't need every feature of a JPEG. Because lossless compression is used in each of these formats, no quality is compromised during compression.

Keep Backup Files: Always have a backup file of the original high-quality version before compressing images. In this way, you can always revert to the original if the compressed file does not meet your requirements.

Learn everything you need to know about removing filters from photos.

Conclusion

Shrinking JPEG images is a very necessary activity for people seeking to save storage space, enhance websites, or share images more efficiently. Whether using what comes with the Windows or Mac, more advanced software such as Adobe Photoshop, or even online tools, there is more than one way to miniaturize these JPEG files. Knowing the additional techniques and advice this article supports can help you reduce the size of your JPEGs without significantly deteriorating the image quality, making them appropriate for daily usage.

FAQs

Q1. Why would I want to shrink my JPEGs?

Ans. By shrinking JPEGs, you get to save much space on your device, thus uploading files easier, websites quicker to open, and sending through emails or even social media platforms makes it easier to share content online without exhausting too much bandwidth.

Q2. What does it mean to "shrink" a JPEG file?

Ans. A JPEG can be shrunk to make it smaller. Reducing the image's width, height, and proportions, or compressing the image to lessen its data, are common methods. Keeping the file size as small as possible without sacrificing quality is the goal.

Q3. Will shrinking my JPEG always degrade the image quality?

Ans. Yes, JPEG is a lossy compression format. This means that shrinking or compressing an image will result in some loss of quality. However, the amount of quality loss can be minute and hardly noticeable unless it is compressed to a high level. The difference is to find the right balance between file size and acceptable quality.

Q4. How can I shrink JPEGs without using software?

Ans. Many free online tools exist where you can reduce JPEGs without downloading any software. Some of the more popular ones include TinyPNG, JPEG-Optimizer, and PhotoCut's Online Image Compressor.

Q5. What is "compression level" and how does it affect JPEG shrinking?

Ans. Compression level refers to how much image data is discarded during compression. A higher compression level reduces the file size more but can introduce visible quality degradation. Lower compression levels retain more image data, preserving quality but resulting in a larger file size.

Why Simple Website Design Works Better in Saudi Arabia

Let me ask you something — when was the last time you stayed on a website that felt messy or confusing? Probably not long. Here in Saudi Arabia, where people are busy and smartphones are everywhere, clean website designs just work better.

I’ve worked with dozens of Saudi businesses on their websites, and time after time, I see how simplifying a design leads to more sales, happier customers, and better Google rankings. Let me break down why this approach works so well here, with real examples you can learn from.

1. Why Clean Designs Just Make Sense

Imagine walking into two stores:

One is packed with signs, products everywhere, loud music

The other is spacious, well-organized, with clear signs

Which would you prefer? Websites work the same way.

What really matters in Saudi Arabia:

Fast loading (people won’t wait)

Easy to read (especially Arabic/English mixes)

Works perfectly on phones

Simple changes that help: → More empty space around text → Fewer colors (2–3 max) → Big, clear buttons

Fun fact: After a Jeddah restaurant simplified their menu page, their online orders increased by 40% in one month!

2. Real Success Story: Saudi Online Shop Fixes Their Site

A popular Saudi clothing site had a problem — lots of visitors, but few buyers. Their old site:

Too many pop-ups

Complicated menus

Slow loading pictures

We made it simpler by:

Removing 60% of the homepage text

Making product photos bigger

Adding a bright “Buy Now” button

The results? ✔ Sales up 35% ✔ Fewer people leaving immediately ✔ Happier customers in reviews

3. Designing for Arabic Speakers

Arabic websites need special care:

Right-to-left reading changes everything

Some fonts work better than others

Cultural preferences matter

Good examples from Saudi sites:

SABB Bank — Clean, easy to navigate

Jarir Bookstore — Simple product pages

HungerStation — Clear food ordering

Pro tip: Always test your design with real Saudi users before launching.

4. Why Google Loves Simple Websites

Google’s smart — it notices when people leave sites quickly. Simple designs help because:

They load faster (critical in Saudi Arabia)

People stay longer

Google can understand them better

Bonus: Simple sites often rank higher in search results.

5. Keeping Your Brand Personality

“Simple” doesn’t mean boring. Saudi brands do this well by:

Using traditional patterns in subtle ways

Choosing 1–2 signature colors (like Saudi green)

Adding small animations that don’t slow things down

Look at AlRajhi Bank’s app — simple but still feels premium.

Final Thoughts

After helping Saudi businesses with their websites for years, I’ve learned one big lesson: simple works. Whether you’re a big company or small shop, cleaning up your website can lead to real results. Reach our web design company in Saudi Arabia now!

Building a decent eCommerce website is easy, but growing a successful eCommerce business is much harder. To make an eCommerce store profitable, you need to constantly improve it based on your past experience. You can do that by applying web design best practices on a continuous basis. Compromising on the design aspects of your website may lead to immediate and long-term effects. Modern eCommerce websites are not just about offering a great user interface (UI), but also great user experience (UX). If the UI/UX is too cumbersome, the visitor will abandon your site, never to be seen again. User Experience (UX) The term user experience (UX) is used to describe how a person feels when using a website, a mobile application or software. People want to navigate smoothly through a website and the different products on offer. Make sure to classify all products into specific categories. The website menu should show all the product categories that your website offers. Unique Design Elements The eCommerce niche is very competitive, which is why it is important to create a website that stands out from the crowd. A unique design can draw attention and bring more visitors to your site. The design of your site should present your visitors with useful and simple features, to help them browse, navigate, and purchase easily and efficiently. People, who are new to online shopping sometimes tend to have less patience for complex web navigation. They often shift their focus towards an attractive and simple-looking design. Effective Product Descriptions Product descriptions influence your buyer's purchasing decision. Attractive fonts, descriptive text, high-quality photos, and videos will make the buyer relate the product to his buying needs. Paying attention to these details can increase your Return On Investment (ROI) in the long run. Note that while a professional and unique web design can make your products look more enticing, it’s important to keep it as close to reality as possible. If the image and the description do not match the quality of the product, your customers will be displeased. This is when you’ll get bad reviews and sustain reputational (and possibly financial) damages. High-Quality Product Images Shoppers want to see multiple angles of the product. They want to be able to zoom in and get a feel of the product in different environments. Providing your customers with detailed product images can increase your sales rates. Technical considerations for images are also important. Visitors don’t have the patience to wait more than a few seconds for your site to load. Optimized website images make your site load faster and are responsive. People also want to see what they can do or achieve once they purchase a product. That’s why putting a product in context and displaying pictures can help visitors to purchase your goods. For example, a jewelry eCommerce website should post pictures of how to combine jewelry with different outfits, and children's clothing stores should post photos of children because they are the target audience. People intuitively associate high-quality images with a professional and trustworthy website, so be sure to avoid grainy and pixelated images.  Mobile-Friendly Website Mobile shopping accounts for 50% of online transactions, which is why the mobile version of an eCommerce website must have the same effect on visitors as the desktop version. The design of the mobile version of a website has to be responsive, the content should adapt automatically to any device and create a mobile-friendly experience for shoppers. Mobile screen size is smaller and if you display only the desktop version, mobile visitors won’t be able to see the entire site. In this situation, a typical user will lose interest and leave the site without making a purchase. Security Privacy is the biggest concern of most shoppers. Visitors want to be sure that the site will protect their personal data by providing a secure transaction. If the website does not feel trustworthy, they will simply choose to shop elsewhere.

Make sure to use SSL certificates to authenticate the identity of a website and encrypt information that needs to remain safe. It is an essential indicator of secure checkouts. Another important security best practice is to use a trust seal. A trust seal verifies the legitimacy and security of a website.  Site Search Option Make sure a clearly visible search field is within reach at all times. Visitors will get the feeling that they can get whatever they want on the website without constantly having to navigate from one place to the other. This is particularly attractive to visitors who already know what products they are interested in. User-Generated Reviews People use product reviews to decide whether they want to make a purchase or not. A neutral review helps prospective customers assess whether a product is suited to their needs and expectations, or not. A positive review typically turns a prospective customer into a buyer, and a negative review often steers customers away. According to Yotpo, the most common words mentioned in negative reviews are "disappointed" or "disappointment". It emphasizes the fact that negative reviews are often about meeting consumer expectations, not necessarily about bad products. Negative reviews sometimes encourage users to make buying decisions. For example, a great product that got negative reviews about the price, might not be a problem for other consumers. When designing an eCommerce website, make the product reviews easy to find and follow. Include a star rate option in your design, use an easily readable font, and display the average review score for the product. Clear & Short Calls to Action (CTA) eCommerce websites visitors look through products quickly and decisively. To help them find what they’re looking for, make your calls to action (CTA) as short and clear as possible.
