If you are a small blogger and can not afford to buy a Content Delivery Network CDN package for your blog, you need not worry. Using W3 total Cache plugin, you can use your server FTP as self hosted CDN for your WordPress blog without buying a CDN package from somewhere else. Obviously, this is not as effective as normal CDN (which serves your files worldwide using servers located near to the destination of the files being served.)
For using the self hosted CDN feature, you need to create a sub domain from your cpanel or any other control panel of your web hosting. Create images.yourdomain.com on your server (or any other name instead of images) . You need to update your DNS zone too.
