You may have noticed that we've been quiet on the blogging front over the last few weeks, but it's not been for lack of activity or (as much as we might wish) extended Fourth of July holidays. Rather, we've been busy at work on some important infrastructure upgrades that have made and will continue to make our application and content produced with it significantly faster.

In a nutshell, these upgrades include:

• the integration with a content delivery network, which results in faster image load times
• added memory, resulting in better and faster site performance
• the enhancement of our software caching layer to dramatically shrink response time, resulting in faster load times of Flyers and single property websites

What this all means is that it will be easier for you both to create vFlyers and other marketing content and impress potential customers with your brilliant, fast-loading Flyers. It has been proven that faster loading pages leads to a greater number of page views.

With regard to the content delivery network, it takes effect on new and existing Flyers automatically. However, it isn’t updated automatically on Craigslist content. If you haven’t republished a flyer in the last few weeks and are using the Craigslist HTML, please republish to take advantage of the faster imaging loading. 

Finally, kudos to the Development Team for their great work on the infrastructure improvements.
