CDN or VPS for CPV marketing

Ray Jonnes · 05-04-2011, 05:49 AM

Everybody knows that it is the key factor to load your popup LPs in CPV instantly less than 1 second and if you got loading time more - you lose your convertions as nobody will wait your popup to load.

So that is the perfemance question: in your experience what is best way to do CPV marketing is to use Virtual Private Server (in some cases Dedicated Server) or use a Content Delivery Network? What brings better results warriors?

Any ideas guys?

I would actually recommend both. A VPS or dedicated server for your landing page and tracking, and then a CDN for your media files (audio, video etc).

This works great for me when driving some very large volume - and I use Amazon for CDN currently.

Agreed, get the best of both worlds. Make sure you use a host that can handle the traffic though and is quick to respond to any of your needs.

I've tested this a lot and my conclusion is that if your web server can handle the traffic without slowing down dont use a CDN.

Using a CDN requires an extra DNS lookup so it will take more.

However , if your server starts slowing down with traffic , serving images and js from the CDN will speed things up.

Also , if you do big volume I would suggest using the Nginx + PHP-FPM combo.

Vps/dedicated has always worked fine for me

Just used a MochaHost VPS + EdgeCast content delivery network and got a x3 load time on all LPs ))) Now it is loading 5-7 seconds always WTF !?

Hey Ray, you must be doing huge PPV volume, right?

As bbrock32 has said, "Using a CDN requires an extra DNS lookup so it will take more." May be the reason
