Yes have a look at the link Paul gave.
In short try this in PS:

From Raw, do any pre-adjusting and open into PS.
Adjust all your usual levels, curves etc.
If you like save it as a tiff file for safekeeping.
Then go to

Image | Image Size | then apply a reduction to 800px in either width or height (whichever is the larger) and
choose Bi-Cubic Sharper.

Then

File | Save for Web

Here you choose the size of the jpg file.
Note IIS now allows jpg files up to 200kb

Adjust the quality slider (make sure you've chosen jpg) so that the file size is around 200kb max.
Press Save and choose a location & name for the file.
