FastCloudWP – Media Offload & CDN Delivery in 2 minutes vs Shortcodes Ultimate – Content Elements

WordPress media libraries grow fast. Images, videos, and documents pile up on your server, increasing disk space usage and server load with every request. FastCloudWP automatically offloads your media library to cloud storage and rewrites every URL so visitors get files from the CDN, faster and with less load on your server. No AWS. No IAM. No S3 buckets. No storage configuration. Just create a FastCloudWP account, paste your site key into the plugin, and you’re done. Everything else is handled for you, including a 5 GB free plan, unlimited sites, no time limit. Features Automatic offloading: New uploads are automatically offloaded to cloud storage immediately after processing; images, videos, documents, and all thumbnail sizes included. CDN URL rewriting: Frontend src and srcset attributes are rewritten on the fly to serve media from the CDN. Compatible with any theme, page builder, or plugin that uses standard WordPress media functions. Bulk migration: Offload your entire existing media library in bulk from the admin dashboard. Optional local deletion: Free up disk space by removing local copies after offloading. Offload status tracking: Each attachment is tracked (queued, pending, offloaded) so you always know what’s been moved. WP-CLI support: Offload media and free disk space from the command line, with progress bars. Settings UI: Clean admin interface to connect, configure, and monitor everything. Pro Plan Upgrade to Pro for more storage and advanced features: 100 GB storage (20x the free plan) Custom CDN domain: serve assets from your own domain, e.g. cdn.yoursite.com Direct restore to WordPress: restore offloaded media back to your server in one click Priority support Learn more at fastcloudwp.com.
