Using a CDN (Content Delivery Network) is a great solution to enhance the speed and performance of your website. In this article, we will explain step-by-step how to integrate the CDN.com.tr service into your WordPress site. We will make the process more understandable with screenshots.
What is a CDN and Why Should You Use It?
A CDN delivers your website’s static content (images, videos, CSS, JavaScript, etc.) via servers distributed worldwide, using the one closest to the user. This way:
- Loading times are shortened.
- The load on the server is reduced.
- SEO performance improves.
- User experience is enhanced.
Step 1: Creating a CDN.com.tr Account and Obtaining API Information
First, you need to create an account on CDN.com.tr. After creating your account, select the domain of the website you want to speed up and go to the settings section. Here, in the “CDN METHOD SETTINGS” section, you will find the User and password information related to the CDN API in the CDN API Tab. Copy this information into the Plugin.
Step 2: Installing the WordPress Plugin
Log in to your WordPress admin panel and go to the “Plugins” section. Click the “Add New” button, search for the CDN.com.tr plugin, and complete the installation. Once the installation is complete, activate the plugin.
Step 3: Entering API Information
After activating the plugin, go to the plugin settings and you will be asked for the CDN API Number and password. Paste the API Number and password you got from your CDN.com.tr account here.
Step 4: Selecting and Saving the Domain
After entering the API information, select the domain of your website from the dropdown menu in the plugin interface and click the “Save” button. This will complete the integration.
Step 5: Serving File Extensions via CDN
After completing the integration, the file extensions defined on the plugin page (e.g., .jpeg, .css, .gif, etc.) will be served via CDN. This will result in a noticeable speed increase in your site’s loading times.
Conclusion
You can complete the CDN integration on your WordPress site with the CDN.com.tr service through these simple steps. With this integration, your site’s performance will significantly improve, providing your visitors with a faster experience.
