<h3>Free Content Delivery Network for your Static Content</h3>
<a href="https://www.shift8web.ca" rel="nofollow ugc">Shift8</a> has rolled out a consistently-growing CDN with endpoints all over the world. This plugin will make your site load way faster by using latency-based and geographic-based DNS resolution for requests made to your site to be served by an endpoint closest to the user making the request. This means that a user making a request in Mumbai, India will hit the Mumbai server to download the static content from your website, improving performance remarkably.
Current endpoints in use (more added regularly) :
<ol>
<li>USA – Northern California</li>
<li>USA – Northern Virginia</li>
<li>USA – Dallas, TX</li>
<li>USA – Miami, FL</li>
<li>Canada – Toronto</li>

Turn Your WordPress into a React-like Single Page App (SPA) – Zero Coding Needed! Instant Page Load doesn’t just speed up your site—it transforms WordPress into a seamless SPA where page transitions feel native, content loads instantly, and users never see a loading screen. like React-based apps (think Netflix or Gmail), while keeping your existing theme and plugins intact. Visitors get app-like speed; you keep WordPress’s simplicity.
<h3>🚀 How It Mimics SPA Behavior</h3>
<ol>
<li>No Full Page Reloads:
<ul>

</ul>
</li>
<li>Smooth Transitions:
<ul>
<li>Feels like navigating a React app, even on WooCommerce or Elementor sites. </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Background Loading:
<ul>
<li>Loads subsequent pages silently while users browse (like SPAs). </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>State Preservation:
<ul>
<li>Maintains scroll positions and form data during navigation.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<h3>🎯 Key Features for SPA-Like Magic</h3>

 – Zero Breaking Changes: Compatible with WooCommerce, LearnDash, and 99% of plugins.
✅ SEO-Friendly Speed
