Feature
CDN
A CDN serves images and files from servers close to your visitors, so your website loads faster, even for visitors far from our server. You turn it on and off per domain.

What you get
Close to your visitors
Images, stylesheets and scripts are stored on servers around the world, so they do not have to travel all the way from our server every time.
On and off per domain
You decide which domains use the CDN. The setting applies to the domain's www address.
Clear the cache in one click
Changed images or design? Clear the CDN cache so visitors get the new version straight away.
How to get started
Open CDN
Find CDN in the control panel. It lists the domains on your web hosting and the status of each.
Turn on the CDN
Turn on the CDN for the domain you want to speed up. The status shows when it is ready.
Clear the cache after changes
After bigger changes, press Purge CDN cache so everyone gets the new files.
Good to know
Start with the biggest wins
The CDN needs a domain on your web hosting. If CDN is not part of your plan, the CDN page in the control panel says so and links to a larger plan. If your website is slow, the biggest wins are often smaller images, fewer plugins and a newer PHP version, so start there and add the CDN on top.

|---|---|---|

Questions and answers
Will my visitors see old files?
After bigger changes the CDN may serve the old version for a while. Press Purge CDN cache to fetch the new files.
Does a CDN make every page faster?
Mostly for visitors far from our server and for pages with many images. A website with heavy plugins will not become fast with a CDN alone, so measure first.
Can I turn it off again?
Yes, at any time and separately for each domain.
