A wordpress plugin i.e WP Smush.it is meant for doing so. It offers an API that performs these optimizations (except for stripping JPEG meta data) automatically, and this plugin seamlessly integrates Smush.it with WordPress.

How does it work?
Every image you add to a page or post will be automatically run through Smush.it behind the scenes. You don’t have to do anything different. In some cases GIFs should be replaced with PNG files. You can control this behavior on the Options page. It is off by default.
