What is CDN?
A content delivery network — copies of your static files served from edge locations close to your visitors.
A CDN (content delivery network) caches your images, CSS, JavaScript and other static files on servers around the world and serves each visitor from the location closest to them. That cuts latency, absorbs traffic spikes and reduces the load on your origin hosting. Popular options like Cloudflare work with any hosting plan: you change nameservers once and the CDN sits in front of your site. Combined with LiteSpeed caching on the server, most sites see dramatically faster load times.
