Step 1: Create CDN storage
In this step, you have to set up your files. It's an optional step as you can have them served from some other place as well. But if you are using CDN's server, you must create a storage and define two information: label and data center location.
Step 2: Create New CDN Resource
For knowing where your files are located, a new CDN resource must be created.

Step 3: Use your CDN URL
Each CDN resource has a distinct URL. The user needs to use that URL for their assets. If you are hosting your files via CDN77 and your files are images, you need the uploaded images to be referred with a CDN URL.
CDN perfectly integrates with most of the CMS systems.
Pricing
This is one of the factors which have to be kept in mind while using any service. With CDN77 you have to pay for two services: First for storing your files and second, for serving them.
Considering you get 50GB free storage space, CDN is pretty cheap. It has three divisions for the pricing. First, traffic under 30TB. Second, traffic between 31-100 TB. And third, traffic between 101-500 TB. You can check out the complete pricing in the image below.
Conclusion : You Should Try CDN77
