Content Delivery Network (CDN)
Updated
A CDN allows for the quick transfer of assets needed for loading Internet content including HTML pages, javascript files, stylesheets, images, and videos.
If your server is in New York, a user in London would normally have to wait for data to travel across the Atlantic. A CDN stores a copy of your site in London, so that user’s request skips the transatlantic round trip entirely.

Global speed, local feel.
I serve every site I build from a CDN, so it loads fast for users no matter where they are located.
