A global CDN adds one final distinct advantage, namely, location, as it will ensure a consistent experience for all of your users, allowing visitors from North America, South America, Europe or Asia to download static content from your site using CDN edge-servers closer to the visitors point of origin. CDNs do exist at all price points, from free to enterprise level solutions that can dramatically improve your content delivery issues. We will consult w
