At Servebolt, maximizing the performance of our customers’ sites is one of our top priorities. As a result, we are constantly looking for new approaches to support our clients in becoming more scalable, secure, greener, and robust in their website processes.
Earlier in 2021, we announced a complimentary fully managed CDN integration for all sites hosted on Servebolt. It allowed all our customers to take advantage of Servebolt CDN for free, on top of our performance-optimized hosting stack. Carefully developed to incorporate all related services needed for the best results, this modern service brought additional value by adding various security enhancements and speed gains that will improve performance across all aspects of the website.
Today, we’re excited to kick off the next grade of our CDN to provide even more value to Servebolt customers day-to-day. We’re doubling the resources in our Servebolt CDN, giving you extra domains per Bolt, included at no additional cost, to support your growth.
What Does Servebolt CDN Do?
The need to deliver content globally efficiently is more crucial in today’s media-interactive Web world and technologies. As WordPress sites can be pretty media-intensive, Content Delivery Network services nowadays are considered a staple in the WordPress world.
At Servebolt, we do things with customers’ needs in mind. Built around five pillars—operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and sustainability—our managed platform provides a consistent approach for customers and partners to implement best practices, optimize costs, and leverage equally incredible experiences to website visitors worldwide. Inevitably, a content delivery network (CDN) is a crucial component of a modern hosting stack.
The Servebolt Performance First Cloud offers a premium, robust enterprise-grade CDN powered by Cloudflare at no additional cost. Servebolt CDN is a site speed optimization service developed in-house specifically for our customers, who receive traffic from different geographic locations. As you would expect from us, it’s all about delivering your website assets – such as images, JavaScript files, and stylesheets – in the fastest way possible.
It comes with a Web Application Firewall built-in (WAF) that consists of security rules from both Cloudflare and Servebolt. No configuration is required, and no hidden costs come along.
Loads of happy users have enabled their Servebolt CDN and are already actively using it. We are so glad and thankful for their positive critical feedback and input that helped us apply some final touches to our offering.
Introducing New Free Domains Limits for Servebolt CDN
Up until now, along with our enterprise-grade Servebolt CDN, we included one domain with 100 GB bandwidth monthly on all Bolts.
With our current legacy plans, we include two domains with 100GB on all Bolts running in the Servebolt Cloud – both new and existing- and new plans offer 5+ domains.
More Servebolt CDN hostnames are available across all (new) current plans.
In June 2023, we launched our brand-new hosting plans. The new plans and pricing enable you to leverage more attractive pricing for increased usage limits. Servebolt CDN hostnames also increase across all new Plans. Check out the announcement post to learn more about the launch.
Plan name | Pro | Business | Scale |
CDN Bandwidth | 100 GB | 100 GB | 100 GB |
Servebolt CDN hostnames | 5 | 10 | 20 |
The included domain can only be used on a domain that is not and has not, in the last six months, been running on a paid Cloudflare plan (Pro, Business, Enterprise) delivered by Servebolt or Accelerated Domains. Every domain also comes with a free SSL certificate.
An additional free domain for Servebolt CDN means you can now onboard a root (apex) domain along with the subdomain to your CDN endpoint. In other words, whether your site is opened with www or without www or if it uses SSL, the Servebolt CDN works as expected.
How to Enable Servebolt’s CDN
To enable the Servebolt CDN, login to the Servebolt Admin Panel and navigate to any of your sites.

Existing customers have already been applied with the new free domain name limits. This means if you’re already using Servebolt CDN, you are welcome to take advantage of the second additional free domain name option.
