Australian Content Delivery Network (CDN)

(Yes, we really mean all of Australia including Perth)

Hosting your website isn’t the only thing Killer Websites can do. Out of the box we deliver high performance websites, but they live in a data centre where they are hosted, in one specific state in Australia. A Content Delivery Network (CDN) solution is an addition to your website that allows it to be delivered from server locations closer to where the website visitor is located & accessing your website from.

In plain English, this is how an Australian CDN with fast Points of Presence (PoPs) throughout Australia works:

Why Should You Care About An Australian CDN?

Making a first impression counts, the first impression you can make on your website is how fast someone can access it, so it matters your site is sleek, optimised & delivered from a Content Delivery Network (CDN) with a local Point of Presence (PoP) to where your website visitor is. This will result in the best possible experience for your website visitor, getting them engaged in your content immediately.

Google Cares about website speed

Since switching to mobile first indexing, Google loves fast sites. There is now an SEO/ranking reason to need a fast, well performing website. Any site built by Killer Website is optimised for performance, adding a CDN into the mix is supercharging it.

On top of the raw speed factor, we set up your CDN with SEO accessibility in mind. All our CDN services we set up for you come with a configured CNAME record to your url (cdn.yourwebsite.com.au), with additionally canonical URLs (this is all the good professional stuff).

You’ve got to be able to measure performance. For websites, the internet and connections often latency is used, a measure of time it takes to complete a trip, collect or send data from one location to another. It’s measured in milliseconds (ms), and while small, it matters. Website load times in total are in the single digit seconds mark, websites often make up to hundreds of simultaneous requests each of those milliseconds for each request add up, so reducing each one is an overall benefit to website load time and latency.

Short & sweet:
The smaller the (ms) number, the better
Timeout/Packet Loss = bad
