Hi @samysalahgad –
Based on your question about using Jetpack for image hosting, I can provide some information. Jetpack’s Image CDN (Site Accelerator) serves your images from our global network of servers, optimizing them for quicker loading times. However, it’s important to note that Jetpack CDN is not a separate image hosting solution like Amazon S3 or Cloudflare R2.
Your images are indeed served from a domain like i2.wp.com after being cached, but they must exist on your server as the original source. If the files are deleted from your server, Jetpack will not be able to serve them, and you will see an image error, as you’ve noticed.
Jetpack CDN is designed to be a performance optimization tool that mirrors content from your WordPress site; it doesn’t function as a standalone image hosting platform. For true image hosting where images are stored and served independently of your server, you would need to use a dedicated service such as Amazon S3 or Cloudflare R2.
Thank you!
