Using Shift8CDN to Optimise Image Delivery: Best Practices and Advice?

#1

Hello Everyone :hugs:,

While I try to improve the functionality of my website, I’ve been investigating several delivery networks for content (CDNs). I recently learned about Shift8CDN and find its capabilities to be quite interesting, particularly its emphasis on enhancing picture delivery and site speed in general.

I could, however, appreciate some advice on how to maximise the most of Shift8CDN as I’m pretty new to using CDNs, especially with regard to image optimisation.

Here are some queries and areas where I may benefit from some clarification:

Image Formats & Compression: Which image formats are the most compatible with Shift8CDN? :thinking: Are there any tools or recommended compression settings that integrate well with Shift8CDN to guarantee fast image delivery without sacrificing quality? :thinking:

Caching Techniques: What image caching techniques does Shift8CDN use? :thinking: Are there any particular configurations or tactics I should use to guarantee my images are effectively cached in various locations? :thinking:

Connectivity with CMS Integration: WordPress is what I use for my website. Which WordPress plugins or configurations are more effective when used via Shift8CDN for image the delivery? :thinking: Any advice on how to configure them? :thinking:

Troubleshooting often Asked Questions: What are some often asked questions that consumers have while using Shift8CDN to optimise image delivery, and the way can I proactively respond to them? :thinking:

Performance Indicators: How can I assess how Shift8CDN is affecting the functionality of my website? :thinking: Do you have any recommendations for certain metrics or tools to track and evaluate enhancements in user experience and load times? :thinking:

I also checked this :point_right: https://community.cloudflare.com/t/what-are-the-best-practices-for-optimizing-content-delivery-using-cloudflares-cdn-any-tips-for-improving-website-performance/mlops but didn’t get clarification.

It would be very appreciated if you could share any resources, best practices, or tips. In addition to making sure my site functions as effectively as possible, I’m looking forward to picking up tips from the community’s experiences.

Thank you :pray: in advance.
