“Should my agency adopt MageCDN for client image delivery?”

Adopt MageCDN only as a low-cost add-on for image hosting and optimization, not as a standalone retainer product.

Common Mistake

Agencies often try to resell MageCDN as a white-label product, but since client dashboards display MageCDN branding, this undermines the agency's brand and client trust.

Why This Works

MageCDN's $9 Lite plan includes 10 GB storage and unlimited bandwidth, with AVIF/WebP compression reducing file sizes up to 90 percent, making it a cost-effective way to serve client images without transformation fees. However, the lack of white-label branding and multi-tenant reporting limits its viability as a standalone retainer offering, so agencies should bundle it with existing web management services.

Apply When
  • •Client image libraries exceed 10 GB, making the $9 Lite plan insufficient
  • •Agency manages 5 or more client websites needing image optimization
  • •Client budgets are tight, requiring unlimited bandwidth without transformation overages
  • •Agency lacks white-label requirements and can accept MageCDN branding in client-facing dashboards
