Built for North American workloads
SaaS and web apps
JS and CSS bundles, fonts, avatars and static API responses: hashed filenames cache forever, releases purge in seconds.
Media and publishing
Article images, galleries and short clips. A story that spikes is absorbed at the edge, not by your origin.
AdTech and MarTech
Creatives, HTML5 ad units and tag scripts, where tens of milliseconds decide whether an ad renders before the slot is gone.

One rate in every region
Most CDNs bill Europe, Asia and North America at different rates, so the same traffic costs a different amount depending on where your users are. BlazingCDN keeps one progressive rate everywhere: $5/TB down to $2.50/TB as volume grows. No regional multipliers, no request fees, no per-feature fees.

The CloudFront gap at 200 TB a month
Most North American teams price us against Amazon CloudFront first, so here is that comparison at the volume where most video and software teams sit. CloudFront publishes two prices: pay as you go from $0.085 per GB, and flat plans with a usage allowance that you can outgrow. The same 200 TB here is billed on progressive tiers with no platform fee, no allowance and no request fees, and the delivery is the same at 5 TB and at 5 PB.

BLAZINGCDN
THE DIFFERENCE
Both prices read on the public pricing pages on 28 August 2026. Below about 46 TB a month their flat plans beat our metered rate, and the full comparison says so: BlazingCDN vs Amazon CloudFront. Run your own volume through the CDN cost calculator.
Questions about CDN in North America
What latency should we expect in North America?
24 ms average latency and 1.11 Gb/s average download speed, measured across North American nodes in June 2026. Numbers vary with the local network, so run the 100 MB test file from the table above for your own measurement.
Is US traffic priced differently?
No. One progressive rate covers every region: $5/TB down to $2.50/TB as monthly volume grows. US and Canadian traffic bill exactly like EU and Asian traffic.
Can we run BlazingCDN next to our current CDN?
Yes. Run it as a backup behind your DNS with roughly 60 second failover, or split traffic by path and compare the numbers. Your current provider stays live either way. Details on the Multi-CDN page.
Is there a testing period?
Yes. New projects start with a 14-day testing period on real traffic at $5/TB, with the $25 monthly minimum waived, so you pay only for what you actually deliver.
Questions buyers ask about a CDN in North America
BlazingCDN delivers North American traffic at 24 ms average latency and 1.11 Gb/s average download speed, measured June 2026 on a 100 MB HTTPS download. US and Canadian traffic bill at the same rate as Europe and Asia, from $5 down to $2.50 per TB, with no regional multipliers and no request fees.
How much does a CDN cost for 200 TB in North America?
BlazingCDN delivers 200 TB a month in North America for $765 (as of October 2026), the same total the traffic would cost in Europe or Asia. The progressive tiers run $5 per TB for the first 5 TB, $4.50 up to 25 TB, $4.00 up to 100 TB and $3.50 up to 500 TB.
For a reference point, Amazon CloudFront pay as you go costs about $6,965 for 100 TB, transfer alone, according to its published price list, checked August 2026. BlazingCDN costs $415 for the same 100 TB. CloudFront also sells flat plans with a usage allowance, and below about 46 TB a month those flat plans beat the BlazingCDN metered rate. Above that point, the per-TB tiers pull ahead. BlazingCDN adds no request fees, no platform fee and no setup fee. For example, a SaaS team at 50 TB pays $215 a month.
What latency does BlazingCDN deliver in North America?
BlazingCDN delivered 24 ms average latency and 1.11 Gb/s average download speed in North America, measured June 2026 on a 100 MB HTTPS download. The same test measured 27 ms and 1.12 Gb/s in Europe, and 47 ms and 761 Mb/s in Asia.
Real numbers depend on the local network, so each buyer should test from the locations of their own users. The speed test on the page uses a 100 MB test file in each region. Several network features help keep latency low. Anycast routing sends each request to a nearby edge, with built-in failover. NVMe SSD servers read cached files quickly, and the network averages a 96%+ cache hit ratio, so most requests never wait on the origin. HTTP/2, TLS 1.3 and Brotli or zstd compression trim round trips and bytes. HTTP/3 is not offered. For example, a 200 KB ad creative reaches a US user straight from the edge cache.
Is US traffic billed differently from Europe and Asia?
No, BlazingCDN bills US, Canadian, European and Asian traffic at one progressive rate, from $5 per TB down to $2.50 per TB (as of October 2026). There are no regional multipliers, no request fees and no per-feature fees.
Many CDNs price regions separately, so the same terabyte costs more in one market than another. BlazingCDN adds all monthly traffic together and applies the tiers to the total. For example, 60 TB from North America and 40 TB from Europe make 100 TB, which costs $415 in total. A team with a mostly American audience pays the same as a team with a global one at the same volume. The monthly minimum is $25 and covers the first 5 TB. Enterprise terms start from 100 TB a month, and a quote never raises the published price. Above 1,500 TB, pricing starts from $2.50 per TB and is quoted individually.
Can BlazingCDN act as backup behind my current CDN?
Yes, BlazingCDN can sit behind your DNS as a backup CDN, with failover in about 60 seconds, while your current provider keeps serving users. Nothing changes for visitors until the failover is needed.
Two setups are common in North America. The first is pure backup: DNS failover points at BlazingCDN only when the primary CDN fails a health check. The second is a weighted split or a path split. For example, 30% of requests, or only the heaviest static paths such as /downloads/, go to BlazingCDN while the rest stays put. A path split cuts the bill on heavy paths without a full migration. Onboarding with an engineer takes about one hour, and a KYC check comes before production traffic. The 14-day testing period runs on real production traffic, with the $25 monthly minimum waived (as of October 2026). Real-time statistics show both traffic and cache hit ratio during the comparison.
Is BlazingCDN a good fit for North American AdTech and SaaS?
BlazingCDN fits North American AdTech and SaaS teams for static delivery: creatives, HTML5 ad units, tag scripts, JS and CSS bundles, fonts and avatars, at 24 ms average latency measured June 2026. Dynamic logic is a different matter, and several features are not offered.
The network does not offer edge compute, WebSockets or HTTP/3. Real-time bidding, ad decisioning and per-user API calls therefore stay on your own servers. What moves well is the heavy static layer. Hashed filenames cache for long periods, releases purge in seconds through the REST API, and a spiking news story is absorbed at the edge instead of the origin. For example, a SaaS app shipping 20 TB of bundles and assets a month pays $92.50 on that volume (as of October 2026). Files up to 50 GB and unlimited requests are included, and an engineer replies within 3 business hours.
