and why do we use a CDN?
Simply put it is a way to speed up the website. We recommend the use of the free Cloudflare account.
Cloudflare includes many great features with its free CDN such as security tools, reporting and a ways to minimize email spam.

A content delivery network (CDN) refers to a geographically distributed group of servers which work together to provide fast delivery of Internet content. A CDN allows for the quick transfer of assets needed for loading Internet content including HTML pages, javascript files, stylesheets, images, and videos. The popularity of CDN services continues to grow, and today the majority of web traffic is served through CDNs, including traffic from major sites like Facebook, Netflix, and Amazon.
The Importance of a CDN.
SPEED!
Web visitors love fast sites, nobody wants to wait for a page to load. Anything you can do to increase the visitors experience on your site will also be rewarded by Google. The goal is to get people to your site to see your content. If you have a slow site Google will mark it down and less and less people will be able to find it thus less people will see your content.
