Website loading speed is currently becoming a major concern for webmasters and companies, since its loading speed is one of the ranking factors in SEO. Google also makes loading speed as part of the web core vitals which is very influential on the position of the website in the SERP.
To address these issues, the Content Delivery Network (CDN) is available as a solution to improve website performance. A CDN can help your website load faster and safer, in addition to allowing cross-geographical users to visit it.
So, what is a CDN and what are its benefits for your website? Learn more about CDN in this article.
What Is Content Delivery Network (CDN)?
Content Delivery Network or CDN is a collection of global servers located in several data centers and spread across various parts of the world. These data centers will ensure that all sides of the world are connected by bringing content closer to websites, without being hindered by distance from each of the main website servers.
Since the delivery is from a nearby server, this has an impact on the delivery of content through a network of servers from the closest location to website visitors. Thus, the content becomes easier and faster to be accessed by users.
How Can Website's Page Load Speed Increase with CDN?
CDN is one of the factors that can significantly increase website loading speed. A CDN can make your website spread across multiple servers around the world easily accessible by visitors anywhere, anytime.
For example, let's say the visitor's location is in the US, while the server of your website is in Indonesia. Due to the remote location of visitors and servers, content delivery takes a long time to process. However, with CDN servers located in several places (e.g., Indonesia, US, and Singapore) the content delivery process can be faster.
4 Benefits and Uses of Multi CDN for Website
Apart from increasing website loading speed, this service can also act as a proxy between visitors and servers, helping you to increase security and protect your site from DDoS attacks.
Here are four Content Delivery Network (CDN) benefits that you can get when implementing it on a website.
1. CDN Makes Your Website Faster
CDN can reduce the distance physical content to travel, so that the process of sending website content can reach visitors more quickly.
2. CDN Capable of Handling Lots of Traffic
CDN can reduce downtime and can handle more traffic. It doesn't matter whether your site is a simple site or one that already has high traffic, CDN will still help improve website performance.
3. CDN Can Build Security Systems and Stop Malicious Traffic
It has many “built-in” mechanisms for handling malicious traffic. There are several mechanisms that can be used to maintain website security using a CDN, such as Bot Control, Web-Application Firewall (WAF), and Backdoor Protection.
4. Prevent Your Site from Going Down When A DDoS Attack Occurs
CDN is able to “recognize” DDoS attacks. It can ensure that your servers are not exposed to malicious traffic originating from DDoS attacks.
