Do I need a CDN? Any advice is welcomed

[kenny4l]

Hey guys,

So last year I use to own an adult website (only fans leaks nothing huge), it was an image based WordPress site on a basic shared hosting plan but after a while I gave up on this project. But I recently bought two domains from a guy that use to do porn reuploads and also had bots promote his sites on social media and the two domains combined get around 4k - 5k daily visits till now.

So my goal is to bring back my old wordpress site and redirect all the traffic to it, the concept will be the same images only website but this time its going to be hosted on an offshore VPS (should I get a dedicated server instead?)

But my question is do I need a CDN? I will be uploading around 1k pics per day on the same sever were I host my website, is it a good approach for 4k daily visits? do cdns allow copyrighted material?

No, You can't host DMCA / Porn Material on CDNs they will eventually Ban your account. I think you should use DMCA-ignored servers; try with a high-end VPS first, and if it slows down, then go for the dedicated one.

I think first to give a try with a normal server because, honestly, DMCA ignored servers are not that great. Or if you have a good budget let me know, I can suggest you some providers they will manage your website.

Thanks for your advice, so you suggest I host the images on the same server were the site is hosted? won't that slow down my web site for the visitors? the domains get visitors from different countries.

And for the hosting I had a bad experience with normal hosting almost got banned last time

No if the hardware is solid then you wont face any issues.

2 years ago I used blueangle host, but they are not good. You can give it a try.

Even if using cloudflare just to hide the ip? I'm looking for normal server (but storage vps) like you said without cdn to store and serve video files. I come down to oneprovider and hostmenow, which are cheapest options to start. What do u think?

CDNs ban adult copyrighted material.
