MaxCDN.com Chosen to Accelerate Social Media News Website Mashable.com

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- MaxCDN.com, a leading Los Angeles-based content delivery network (CDN) provider, announces today that they are formally accelerating Mashable.com, the Internet's largest social media news blog content around the world, using its World-Class Anycast IP network. MaxCDN.com provides full WordPress CDN integration and static file acceleration and compression.

"We are extremely happy and proud to announce the partnership between MaxCDN and Mashable," said Ben Neumann, MaxCDN's Chief Executive Officer. "Being chosen to accelerate Mashable.com is a testament to the exceptional quality and reliability of our private CDN network."

Mashable came to MaxCDN in 2009 wanting to take their content delivery network integration to the next level with custom features and requirements that were not offered at their previous CDN. MaxCDN's team quickly went to work to develop the tools and system infrastructure necessary to meet Mashable's demanding requirements. After an initial plan was created, Mashable was successfully implemented and fully integrated on the MaxCDN platform in less than a week.

"Mashable's readership has more than tripled this year and we needed a way to maintain a good user experience. MaxCDN makes that possible," said Frederick Townes, CTO of Mashable. "I don't know what we would have done without them and their support team."

Since implementation, Mashable.com has already seen lower latency times, decreased page load times and nearly a 30% reduction in bandwidth usage through the static file compression MaxCDN.com provides.
