I wanted to set up AWS Amazon Web Services today and speed up the load times on my new EasySocial powered social network at ChamberAnswers.com so I could use the CDN plugin from NoNumber, and I found an excellent 10 minute video created and offered up by Craig Philips. Craig is from Seepeoplesoftware.com and he gave an excellent Lightning talk 3: Adding a CDN to Joomla! in 10 minutes at Sydney Joomla User Group, and you are encouraged to watch it here and learn from Craig on how to set up your CDN and connect it to Amazon Web Services:

He gives a quick fly-over of the free version of the NoNumber CDN for Joomla! plugin in conjunction with Amazon's CloudFront, and he highly recommends using the Pro version.

Incorporating a CDN with your website gives you several benefits, including the following:
Faster Page Loads - Since most of your files will be served from a much closer location to your end-users, the speed in which your page loads will be greatly increased.
Reduced Server Load - Since most of your files are no longer served by your own host, your server will be freed up to perform the basic tasks required of it.
Handle More Visitors - Because of the improvements just mentioned and other factors, your website will be able to handle the strain of a much larger user base that it could otherwise.
Higher SEO Rankings - Caused by the increase in performance to your site, something Google recently claimed effects SEO rankings.
