What is a CDN and why do I need it for my WordPress site?

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a network of servers distributed globally that stores and delivers cached copies of your website’s static content. For WordPress sites, implementing a CDN offers several key benefits:

  • Faster page load times by serving content from servers closest to visitors
  • Reduced server load on your main hosting
  • Better SEO rankings due to improved site speed
  • Enhanced security against DDoS attacks

To easily integrate a CDN with WordPress, you can use the WP Fastest Cache plugin which includes CDN functionality along with other performance optimization features.
