Have you ever landed on a website so slow it feels like time has stood still? In May 2023, Google’s Chrome UX Report revealed that just a one-second delay can slash conversions by about 7%. Now imagine your online storefront in New York dragging its feet because each page request has to cross continents—abandoned carts and missed revenue are the inevitable outcome.
Think of an edge server as a neighborhood parcel hub popping up in every major city. Instead of routing every request to a centralized data center halfway around the globe, edge nodes in New York, Chicago, and San Francisco cache and serve content right where your users are.
Key edge services include:
Before switching to edge hosting, ABC Retail’s average time-to-first-byte (TTFB) hovered around 800 ms. After activating our Chicago node, that number dropped to 200 ms, boosting on-page engagement by 25% and lifting conversions by 12%.
Benefit | Description |
---|---|
Speed | Instant content delivery drives higher SEO rankings and happier users. |
Reliability | Traffic reroutes seamlessly if a node goes offline—zero downtime. |
Scalability | Auto-scales during traffic spikes without missing a beat. |
Security | Distributed network thwarts DDoS attacks and safeguards your site. |
