Q: I use a free wordpress site.

But I have 15 Rapidweaver sites. Do I just need to host a wordpress site to use your CDN Adaptive image plugin? Load my image in wordpress, then take the https:// link and use the warehoused image link on my website to get CDN? I have looked into cloudflare but they want $20 a month or more. My websites currently do not get that many visitors, but I am interested in CDN. As for image compression, I already did that but yours might improve it some more. If I send emails with warehoused image links will that count on my CDN usage?

A: Yes, you need to have a WordPress website to use ShortPixel Adaptive Images.
But you can use the ShortPixel CDN by itself. And yes, you can also include CDN urls in your website and emails, they'll surely count as CDN usage.

In order to get a CDN image with ShortPixel, I need to use wordpress right? To get the image hosted. Or do you have within ShortPixel a way to upload images on CDN? I'm going to buy a plan for sure.

Can you tell me how this works? I have website on wix and bookmark

@sumo-ling: you actually need this new deal so you can use our CDN but definitely you don't need WordPress so you can use our API and/or CDN.
The images are automatically uploaded and converted/resized/optimized by calling the API.
Here's more info about how to use the API directly:

@DCG: you cannot use our tools directly with Wix but you can freely use these websites to optimize the images BEFORE you upload them to Wix or other CMS platforms:
