7. Optional Content Delivery Network (CDN)
What is it? A content delivery network (CDN) puts the building blocks of your website (such as images, videos, stylesheets and javascripts) on many servers around the world. The CDN then ensures that visitors of your website load those building blocks of a server closest to them. This typically means better usage of your server and faster load times for visitors, wherever they are located.
A CDN is available for each website. Simply send an email to our support and mention the domain it’s for and it will provisioned for you. Please be very specific… www.domain.com is not the same as domain.com. And http is different from https.
- Contact us with the exact URL you need the CDN for
Note: a CDN is not always better to use, feel free to ask us for advice.
