Make sure the dimension is big enough for most resolutions, like 2800×1600 pixels @RedJokingInn

Whoa whoa. Probably way too big. Find out what the *majoriy* of users visiting the website have their resolution set to and use that as your target.

I think you will arrive at 600kb or 500kb, which is ok.

Way too big. I’d cap it at 200-300KB and even then I think that’s too much.
