In today’s episode of Human Friend Digital, we’re diving deep into the acronym-packed world of website launches. You’ve heard of DNS, CMS, CDN, and SSL, but do you really know what they mean? Jacob and Jeffrey are here to make sense of it all, keeping things laid-back while tackling some essential topics. From the basics of the Domain Name System (DNS) to how a Content Delivery Network (CDN) like Cloudflare speeds up your website, we’re covering it all without getting too technical.
We also give a special shoutout to the little-known heroes of internet privacy, like the team at Let’s Encrypt, who have made SSL certificates accessible to everyone. Whether you're a seasoned web developer or just curious about what happens behind the scenes when you click on a URL, we’ve got you covered.

- Let’s Encrypt – Free SSL certificates for securing websites.
- WP Engine – Managed WordPress hosting platform with built-in CMS and SSL options.
