WordPress media libraries grow fast. Images, videos, and documents pile up on your server, increasing disk space usage and server load with every request. FastCloudWP automatically offloads your media library to cloud storage and rewrites every URL so visitors get files from the CDN, faster and with less load on your server.
No AWS. No IAM. No S3 buckets. No storage configuration. Just <a href="https://app.fastcloudwp.com/register" rel="nofollow ugc">create a FastCloudWP account</a>, paste your site key into the plugin, and you’re done. Everything else is handled for you, including a 5 GB free plan, unlimited sites, no time limit.

<li>Bulk migration: Offload your entire existing media library in bulk from the admin dashboard.</li>
<li>Optional local deletion: Free up disk space by removing local copies after offloading.</li>
<li>Offload status tracking: Each attachment is tracked (<code>queued</code>, <code>pending</code>, <code>offloaded</code>) so you always know what’s been moved.</li>
<li>WP-CLI support: Offload media and free disk space from the command line, with progress bars.</li>
<li>Settings UI: Clean admin interface to connect, configure, and monitor everything.</li>

<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin connects to the FastCloudWP service to store and deliver your media files.
When you connect the plugin, your site communicates with the FastCloudWP API at <code>https://app.fastcloudwp.com/</code> to authenticate, offload media files, and receive delivery status callbacks. Media files uploaded to WordPress are transmitted to FastCloudWP’s servers and served to visitors from the FastCloudWP CDN.
This service is operated by FastCloudWP. Please review their policies before using the plugin:
