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 delivers cached versions of your website’s static content to visitors based on their geographic location. For WordPress sites, implementing a CDN offers several benefits:

  • Faster page load times worldwide
  • Reduced server load on your hosting
  • Better SEO rankings due to improved speed
  • Enhanced user experience
  • Increased 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 and optimization features.
