 * Hi forum.
 * I’d like to know, would it be best for me to upload files on an external host,
   and having the downlaod link available on my WP site, or should I just upload
   my files within my own wordpress site. I wanted to know if the file size would
   slower down wordpress from loading, or this doesnt affect my website?
 * Thank you.

 * I don’t think it matters. If it does, then that’s a conversation with your server
   providers.

 * Hi,
 * You should serve downloadable files through CDN Hosting. It will ensure faster
   downloading speed as files will be served through nearest edge servers to your
   visitors.
 * Thanks,
