New WAF/CDN's
Only one offers a free plan also
I must be upfront and TAGFEE I am a partner of Imperva the company that owns Incapula.
Incapula now has a free offer on their content delivery network, of course, there are two catches.
- If your site Is encrypted a.k.a. Using SSL or https:// you must choose a paid plan.
- You do not get access to their phenomenal rewrite rules which can speed up your site quite a bit. Still, if you have no or no intention to use https this is better than CloudFlare when it comes to speed plus much better when it comes to security, but you must pay for the safety on both networks
The second content delivery network is not free. But worth mentioning.
StackPath is a new CDN/WAF built on MaxCDN's network. However, it offers you so much more for the base price of $20 month compared to what that would cost on MaxCDN hundreds of dollars a month.
This CDN is unique because you get so much for the money. I bring it up only because people browsing this will hopefully find this useful.
Hopefully, this is of use people checking out this question.
All the best,
Tom

I use MaxCDN at my place of work, it has proved itself to be very good, easy to set up and relatively inexpensive depending on the plan. As per Thomas and Thomas - CloudFlare is great as a free version.
-
- amazon Cloudfront is the best...
-
As mentioned by Thomas, I would really have a look at cloudflare, their free plan for me personally performs much better than other paid content delivery networks.
-
A free content delivery network the best one would be https://www.cloudflare.com/ is completely free and very high-quality & very simple to set up and will accelerate your site quite a bit. with a network that keeps growing, I would say if you're looking for completely free this is the only way to go. Here's a larger photo of the one below.

**The same goes for Incapsula.com free plan, but if you do not log in often enough, they will turn it off on a free program. If you get their base paid offering, it is an incredible CDN as well. **
If you're looking to spend tiny bit more money but want a pure CDN to check out keyCDN CDNFi, CDN 77 Max CDN Rackspace CDN uses Akamai, and it's a bargain.
If Looking for great content delivery networks fastly, CacheFly.com, edge cast, Turbobytes

If you are looking for a higher quality CDN unique just content delivery CDN or information on CDN's, this is a list of reviews capabilities of each CDN and the cost and comparison
I hope this helps,

A good experiment to test keyword/vertical difficulty?
I'm trying to rank a brand new client site but getting nowhere for our main keyword/s - this after 6 months. We have built lots of good links and literally tried everything to fix this. What's a good way for me to test the keywords on a different page / domain to be certain the problem isn't with the vertical/keyword? I'd love to have some advice on this vs. how to fix the problem, which I've asked about here before. I'm assuming buying and trying to rank a new domain is a bad idea since sandboxing etc. could make it very difficult. Perhaps sending some links to a Tumblr page that's optimized for the main keyword or something similar? Would love to hear some suggestions - thanks a lot.

Duplicating relevant category content in subcategories. Good or bad for google ranking?
In a travel related page I have city categories with city related information.
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | lcourse
Would you recommend for or against duplicating some relevant city related in subcategory pages. For visitor it would be useful and google should have more context about the topic of our page.
But my main concern is how this may be perceived by google and especially whether it may make it more likely being penalized for thin content. We already were hit end of june by panda/phantom and we are working on adding also more unique content, but this would be something that we could do additionally and basically instantaneously. Just do not want to make things worse.0 -
Is Building a Local Directory of Businesses on a Subdomain Good SEO?
Hello Fellow Moz'ers: I own a small digital shop in a major US city. We had a marketing idea which I'd like some input on the soundness of. We are creating a professional services directory of 'digital professional services providers' in our hometown. The directory's membership will only be open to firms located within our city limits. The directory will be curated and maintained, ongoing, by us. Our motivation is 75% selfish and 25% benevolent. The idea is that, by building the directory on our subdomain, we hopefully will collect links, which ultimately will enhance search visibility. But I'm concerned about the devaluation directories have incurred in recent years and I've even seen advice given to the effect that listings in some directories might be harmful to a site's link profile. It is not our intention to harm those who might list in our directory. Any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

What is a "good" dwell time?
I know there isn't any official documentation from Google about exact number of seconds a user should spend on a site, but does anyone have any case studies that looks at what might be a good "dwell time" to shoot for? We're looking on integrating an exact time on site into or Google Analytics metrics to count as a 'non-bounce'--so, for example, if a user spends 45 seconds on an article, then, we wouldn't count it as a bounce, since the reader likely read through all the content.
