<h3>Free Content Delivery Network for your Static Content</h3>
<p><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.</p>
<p>Current endpoints in use (more added regularly) :</p>
<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>
<li>Europe – London, England </li>
<li>Europe – Stockholm, Sweden</li>
<li>Europe – Warsaw, Poland</li>
<li>Europe – Frankfurt, Germany</li>
<li>Europe – Ukraine</li>
<li>Asia Pacific – Hong Kong, China</li>
<li>Asia Pacific – Tokyo, Japan</li>
<li>Asia Pacific – Sydney, Australia</li>
