He has an\u00a0account\u00a0with MaxCDN which is a division of NetDNA that he uses for his customers. \u00a0I have my own self-hosted sites so he simply setup pull zones on MaxCDN for me to use. \u00a0From there I just needed to create DNS CNAME&#8217;s for each domain to point to his domains. \u00a0So I have CNAME&#8217;s like this with his CDN hosting on the back-end.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>cdn.chriscolotti.us<\/li>\n<li>cdn.jaquilting.com<\/li>\n<li>cdn.v-fit.us<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once the zones are setup they start pulling all the static content over and you can start getting WordPress configured to use the new file locations. \u00a0Below is a screen shot from the MaxCDN side of things provided by Doug.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1859\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/technology\/how-to-add-cdn-to-your-wordpress-blog-site\/attachment\/maxcdn-admin\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin.png\" data-orig-size=\"1097,732\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"maxcdn admin\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin-300x200.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin-1024x683.png\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1859\" title=\"maxcdn admin\" src=\"http:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"526\" height=\"351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin.png 1097w, https:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/chriscolotti.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/maxcdn-admin-1024x683.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 526px) 100vw, 526px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Configuring W3TotalCache for CDN<\/h3>\n<p>This part is so super crazy easy it is scary. \u00a0First you need to install the <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/w3-total-cache\/\" target=\"_blank\">W3TotalCache WordPress Plugin<\/a>. \u00a0If you do not have it installed, it is pretty good and I will not go through all the other things it does. \u00a0Once installed enable the CDN function and select the provider you are using from the general settings.

what items you want to offload to the CDN for serving up. \u00a0You can usually leave the defaults, and depending on your CSS and JSS Minify items you can add those too. \u00a0You will need to experiment to see if you will have issues or not. \u00a0Remember these files will already be pulled into the CDN, so enabling or disabling just tells WordPress to get them locally or from the
