Video Streaming CDN
Content Delivery Network Service for Live and On-Demand Videos
Video has become a big part of the modern web experience. In fact, web pages that feature videos get more engagement than web pages that only have texts and images.
It is a great way to convey a message, attract customers, and achieve many of your website’s goals.
However, having videos on your website also has its downside. It is a heavy file that requires a bit of bandwidth to load.
That can present some problems for your web visitors, especially those that are not within the vicinity of your host server.
When a web visitor makes a request to access your page, they have to deal with latency. This refers to the time a web request is made for web page access to the time the host server delivered the web page content after receiving the request.
The farther the web visitor is from the host server the bigger the latency. Combine that with the fact that video files are usually significant, then you have slow-loading pages with buffering videos.
That does not make for a great web experience and will turn off visitors. Next thing you know, you have a high web visitor churn rate.
Fortunately, there is a simple solution to this complicated problem. What you can do is employ video streaming CDN to streamline the delivery of your web content, especially when it involves streaming videos.
What is Content Delivery Network Services?
Content delivery network services or CDN services refers to a series of servers working together to solve the problem of latency.
By caching copies of your web pages including all its elements like texts, images, JavaScript files, and of course, video, it is able to respond to web requests that are geographically near them.
