A content delivery network can help small businesses in the following ways:
- Faster performance: CDNs help in improving page speed and reducing latency by distributing content across several servers internationally and serving users from the servers nearest to them.
- Lower costs: By lowering server load and bandwidth hosting expenses, CDNs can minimize delivery costs.
- Enhanced security: Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks can be lessened with the use of CDNs, as they can detect malicious traffic before it reaches the origin server.
- Ability to handle traffic spikes: CDNs reduce server load and help in handling traffic spikes.
