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

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a system of distributed servers that delivers web content to users based on their geographic location. For WordPress sites, a CDN provides several important benefits:

  • Faster page load times by serving content from servers closer 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 offers built-in CDN support. Another excellent option is the W3 Total Cache plugin, which provides comprehensive CDN integration options.
