Companies Using jsDelivr
Our October 2026 crawl finds 2,012,188 websites loading at least one script, stylesheet or other file from jsDelivr's public CDN, cdn.jsdelivr.net, after we removed domain-for-sale and gambling pages. jsDelivr is free, so there are no customers to count. Below is the list of companies that use jsDelivr, meaning companies whose sites load it, with size, country, industry and stack. Novartis, Taco Bell and HCLTech load it on their main sites; Boeing, Disney and Sanofi on their careers sites.
jsDelivr ranks 3rd of the 60 CDNs we track in CDN, with 9.63%, behind Cloudflare and cdnjs. Before cleaning it was 2nd. One domain marketplace, HugeDomains, has its for-sale pages load a jsDelivr file, and its 246,098 parked domains were about a tenth of the raw count. The public CDNs are used side by side rather than instead of each other: 680,794 jsDelivr domains also load cdnjs.

jsDelivr Usage Statistics
We count 2,012,188 jsDelivr domains in October 2026, after removing 290,286 for-sale and gambling pages. That cleaned figure exists for one month only, so there's no trend chart here. Our raw monthly counts, which include those pages, start at 1,735,630 in June and jump by 380,231 in July. That jump reflects changes on our side rather than a surge in adoption: the set of domains we crawl turns over every month, with dead sites dropping out and newly found ones added, and our detection signals widen over time. Since we began tracking it in March 2026, 368,118 domains have dropped jsDelivr, and about one in eight of those still load it on another hostname.

Which Countries Use jsDelivr the Most?
Which countries use jsDelivr the most? The United States, with 287,109 matched companies, then the United Kingdom (86,391), India (69,947), Brazil (59,506) and France (43,569). Canada, the Netherlands, Australia and Germany sit close together, between 32,414 and 36,154. A free CDN has no sales team, so this map follows where websites get built rather than where a vendor sells. These counts cover the 1,050,561 jsDelivr domains we matched to a company.
Share of the 1,050,561 jsDelivr domains we matched to a company record — 52.2% of the 2,012,188 we detect. Top 15 countries shown, so these do not sum to 100%. Domains with no matching company record are not represented here and skew small and independent.
jsDelivr Market Share Among CDN
What is jsDelivr's market share? 9.63% of the CDN category, 3rd of the 60 we track, based on our live crawl at TechnologyChecker.io. Cloudflare leads with 10,497,906 domains, but it's a different kind of service: a site sits behind Cloudflare, while it loads a library from jsDelivr. The direct rival is cdnjs, with 2,261,527 domains (10.82%), 249,339 ahead. On raw counts jsDelivr led. Once for-sale and gambling pages come out of both, cdnjs moves ahead, because HugeDomains' landers load jsDelivr: only 16 of the 38,591 domains removed from cdnjs were HugeDomains pages.
Top Competitors by Market Share
jsDelivr Customers by Company Size & Age
What size companies use jsDelivr? Overwhelmingly small ones. 56.35% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 25.52% have 11 to 50, so 81.87% have 50 staff or fewer. The tail is still large in absolute terms: 19,702 companies have more than 1,000 employees. At those, jsDelivr tends to load on one property, and in our top 50, 14 were detected on a jobs or careers site.
Company Size Distribution
Company Age (Founded Decade)
The largest group of matched companies was founded in the 2010s (36.49%), and another 21.57% in the 2020s, so 58.06% date from 2010 or later. 16.76% were founded in the 2000s and 9.28% in the 1990s. That's a younger base than on our IIS profile, where only 8.73% of matched companies date from the 2020s.
What Industries Use jsDelivr the Most?
Retail leads at 4.16%, with IT Services and IT Consulting (4.15%), Real Estate (4.14%) and Software Development (3.65%) close behind, based on our enriched company data. The top three are 146 companies apart (38,412, 38,375 and 38,266). The ten industries charted add up to 31.25% of matched companies, so no sector defines jsDelivr. It goes wherever a theme or plugin takes it.
Real estate companies using jsDelivr make up 4.14%, and the largest single owner in our data is a brokerage brand: Coldwell Banker holds 95 jsDelivr domains. Restaurant brands on jsDelivr include Taco Bell on www.tacobell.com, Wendy's on wendys.com and KFC on its jobs site. Pharmaceutical companies using jsDelivr include Novartis on novartis.com and Sanofi on its careers site.
jsDelivr Alternatives & Competitors
cdnjs (10.82%) is jsDelivr's closest rival, and the two mostly coexist. 680,794 jsDelivr domains also load cdnjs, 33.83% of jsDelivr's 2,012,188. 335,287 also load Google Hosted Libraries (7.85% of the category), 295,763 the jQuery CDN (4.02%) and 229,595 Unpkg (3.36%). None of these pairs passes our switching tests, because most domains ever seen with both still load both. One company stands behind both public CDNs: cdnjs is served from Cloudflare's network, per cdnjs, and Cloudflare is one of jsDelivr's main backend CDNs, per its sponsors page.

Tech Stack of jsDelivr-Powered Websites
Percentages are of the 2,012,187 live jsDelivr domains in the cleaned set. jQuery runs on 77.41% and Bootstrap on 43.13%; Bootstrap's own documentation links its CSS and JavaScript from cdn.jsdelivr.net, which explains part of that pairing. WordPress is on 28.37%, Elementor 6.44% and Webflow 5.32%. Carousel libraries are common: Swiper is on 25.21% and Slick on 15.43%. Tailwind CSS is on 17.47%, and Google Analytics on 60.41%.

How We Counted jsDelivr Sites
A domain counts here when a page on it loads at least one script, stylesheet or other file from cdn.jsdelivr.net. That includes files pulled in by plugins, themes, site templates and embedded widgets, so read the count as sites, not decisions. jsDelivr is free and has no paying customers.
The headline is cleaned. Of 2,302,474 raw live domains we removed 290,286 (12.61%) as domain-for-sale landers and gambling pages. 246,098 of them, 10.69% of the raw count, are HugeDomains' parked domains, which redirect to a sales page that loads the fancybox lightbox from jsDelivr. That's more than the 10% we accept before re-basing a headline, so the 2,012,188 headline and every chart and table on this page use the cleaned set, and the rival CDNs were cleaned the same way.
Before cleaning, our count was 2,287,584 domains, 10.77% of the CDN category and 2nd place. Cleaned, jsDelivr is 3rd with 9.63%, behind cdnjs, which lost only 16 domains to the HugeDomains filter. We don't break the count down by npm package, because our sample of script addresses is too thin to rank packages honestly.
Expert Analysis: jsDelivr Growth Trends & Key Signals for Sales Teams in 2026

I build prospect lists from detections like this one, and jsDelivr needs a different reading from a paid tool. Nobody buys it. A domain counts when a page on it loads any file from cdn.jsdelivr.net, which can mean a developer's choice or a theme's. As of our October 2026 crawl that's 2,012,188 domains after cleaning, 3rd of the 60 CDNs we track, with 1,050,561 matched to a company. So the useful question is what a jsDelivr hit tells you about the site.
One marketplace in the count
Start with what isn't a real site. Our raw count was 2,302,474 live domains, and we removed 290,286 of them, 12.61%, as for-sale landers and gambling pages. 246,098 belong to one marketplace, HugeDomains, whose parked domains redirect to a sales page that loads the fancybox lightbox from jsDelivr. That's 10.69% of the raw count, and it changes the ranking. On raw numbers jsDelivr led cdnjs by 11,435 domains; cleaned, cdnjs leads by 249,339, because only 16 of the 38,591 domains removed from cdnjs were HugeDomains pages.
Sales signal: dedupe by redirect target before you size any CDN-based list. A domain that lands on hugedomains.com isn't a prospect.
Growth trajectory
We have one cleaned month, so I won't draw a trend from it. Our raw monthly counts, landers included, start at 1,735,630 in June, and the biggest step came in July (380,231 domains). That step is mostly our side, not the web: the set we crawl turns over each month as dead sites drop out and new ones come in, and our detection signals widen over time. Since March 2026, 368,118 domains dropped jsDelivr, and about one in eight still load it on another hostname. A free file host has no renewal, so those exits are more likely to be redesigns and closed sites than decisions against jsDelivr.
"There's no contract behind a jsDelivr hit, so the count measures how websites get built: which themes, plugins and templates reach for a public CDN." - Emma Davies, Data Analyst at TechnologyChecker.io
Sales signal: treat jsDelivr as a marker on about two million sites, useful for describing a site's build rather than for timing a sale.
Who loads it
56.35% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 81.87% have 50 or fewer. They're young, too: 58.06% were founded in 2010 or later. Large companies still number 19,702 above 1,000 staff, but they load jsDelivr on particular properties. In our top 50, 14 were detected on a jobs or careers site, and six of those (Boeing, Disney, ING, Itaú, Sanofi and UnitedHealth Group) run on Radancy's TalentBrew careers platform, whose asset host appears in their page source. Novartis, Taco Bell, HCLTech, Vodafone and Wendy's load it on the main site.
Sales signal: at a large company, a jsDelivr hit on a careers site points to the recruitment-marketing vendor, not the company's engineers. Ask who built the property before you pitch developer tooling.
Where and in which sectors
The United States has 287,109 matched companies, the United Kingdom 86,391, India 69,947, Brazil 59,506 and France 43,569. Industry is flat. Retail leads at 4.16%, IT services at 4.15% and real estate at 4.14%, and the top ten add up to 31.25%. The biggest single owner is a brokerage brand: Coldwell Banker holds 95 jsDelivr domains, the most of any single company on this list.
Sales signal: for agencies selling site rebuilds, real-estate brokerages are where one decision can cover dozens of jsDelivr domains at once.
Side by side with cdnjs
No pair passed our switching tests. Public CDNs aren't exclusive, so domains add and drop them without replacing one with another. 680,794 jsDelivr domains also load cdnjs, 33.83% of the cleaned set. 335,287 also load Google Hosted Libraries, 295,763 the jQuery CDN and 229,595 Unpkg. And 870,222, or 43.25%, sit behind Cloudflare, the same company whose network serves cdnjs and which is one of jsDelivr's two main backend CDNs.
"A third of jsDelivr sites also load cdnjs. I read that as plugins and themes each bringing their own CDN, rather than anyone choosing between them." - Emma Davies, Data Analyst at TechnologyChecker.io
Sales signal: a site pulling files from two or three public CDNs is a candidate for a performance audit or a move to self-hosted, bundled assets. That's an easy opener for web-performance agencies.
The stack around it
Across the 2,012,187 domains in the cleaned set, jQuery runs on 77.41% and Bootstrap on 43.13%. Bootstrap's documentation points its install links at cdn.jsdelivr.net, and jsDelivr took over BootstrapCDN in March 2021, so the pairing is no accident. WordPress is on 28.37%, Elementor 6.44% and Webflow 5.32%. Swiper (25.21%) and Slick (15.43%) show how many of these sites run a carousel. Tailwind CSS is on 17.47%, a sign that newer builds use jsDelivr as well.
Sales signal: jQuery plus Bootstrap from a public CDN usually marks an older, template-built front end. Redesign agencies and WordPress maintenance shops will find more fit here than headless or React vendors.
What it costs
Nothing. jsDelivr's About page says there are no bandwidth limits or premium features, and that the traffic is donated by CDN sponsors: Cloudflare and Fastly as main backends, Bunny and GCore as regional and backup CDNs. Its privacy policy names Volentio JSD Limited, registered in England and Wales, as the operator, and the site says it serves more than 150 billion requests a month.
Sales signal: there's no jsDelivr budget to displace. Sell what sits next to it: hosting, performance work or a rebuild.
Key takeaways
1. 2,012,188 domains after cleaning, 3rd of 60 CDNs, counted as sites, not customers.
2. HugeDomains' for-sale landers were 10.69% of the raw count, enough to flip the order with cdnjs.
3. 81.87% of matched companies have 50 staff or fewer; large ones load it on careers sites and other single properties.
4. 680,794 jsDelivr domains also load cdnjs; public CDNs coexist rather than compete.
5. jQuery (77.41%) and Bootstrap (43.13%) define the typical jsDelivr site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who uses jsDelivr?
Mostly small businesses, usually through a theme, plugin or template, plus a long enterprise tail. Our October 2026 crawl finds jsDelivr files on 2,012,188 domains after removing for-sale and gambling pages, and 81.87% of matched companies have 50 or fewer staff. Named examples include Novartis, Taco Bell, HCLTech and Vodafone on their main sites, Lockheed Martin's newsroom and Boeing's careers site.
How many customers does jsDelivr have?
None in the paying sense: jsDelivr is a free public CDN with no paid plans or premium features. What we can count is websites. Our October 2026 crawl finds 2,012,188 domains loading at least one file from cdn.jsdelivr.net, after we removed 290,286 for-sale and gambling pages, and 1,050,561 of them match a company. Most removed pages were HugeDomains' parked domains.
What is jsDelivr's market share?
9.63% of the CDN category, 3rd of the 60 we track, on 2,012,188 domains. Cloudflare leads, but sites sit behind Cloudflare rather than loading libraries from it. cdnjs is second with 10.82% on 2,261,527 domains, 249,339 more. On raw counts jsDelivr was ahead; HugeDomains' for-sale pages, which load jsDelivr, made the difference. 680,794 domains load both.
What are the best alternatives to jsDelivr?
cdnjs is the closest, with 2,261,527 domains and files served from Cloudflare's network. Unpkg serves any file on npm, as jsDelivr does; Google Hosted Libraries and the jQuery CDN carry a narrower set of popular libraries. Self-hosting is the other route. Few sites pick just one CDN: 680,794 load jsDelivr and cdnjs, and 229,595 load jsDelivr and Unpkg.
Which countries use jsDelivr the most?
The United States, with 287,109 matched companies, then the United Kingdom (86,391), India (69,947), Brazil (59,506), France (43,569) and Canada (36,154). The Netherlands, Australia and Germany each have between 32,414 and 34,377. These counts cover the 1,050,561 jsDelivr domains we matched to a company, so they describe the businesses behind the sites, not their visitors.
What size companies use jsDelivr?
Mostly very small ones. 56.35% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 25.52% have 11 to 50, so 81.87% have 50 staff or fewer. 19,702 companies have more than 1,000 employees. At large employers jsDelivr often loads on a single property, and 14 of the 50 companies in our top list were detected on a jobs or careers site.
How old are companies that use jsDelivr?
Fairly young. The largest group of matched companies was founded in the 2010s (36.49%), then the 2020s (21.57%), so 58.06% date from 2010 or later. 16.76% were founded in the 2000s and 9.28% in the 1990s. Compare IIS, whose matched companies skew much older: only 8.73% were founded in the 2020s, and 41.02% before 2000.

Is CDN jsDelivr.net safe?
jsDelivr is a legitimate service that has operated since 2012, publishes formal terms and a privacy policy, and spreads traffic across Cloudflare, Fastly, Bunny and GCore. The risk with any public CDN is running code you don't host. Subresource Integrity, as MDN explains, lets the browser reject a file whose hash doesn't match, and version-pinned URLs keep files from changing underneath you.
Does jsDelivr track you?
jsDelivr's privacy policy says its services use no cookies and that neither it nor its CDN providers track any individual user. Like any server, it does receive request data: the policy lists IP address, browser type, referring domain and the file requested, used for analytics, security and abuse detection. Raw usage data is kept until analysed and then deleted, with security and legal exceptions.
How is jsDelivr free?
Sponsors carry the traffic. jsDelivr's About page says all the traffic it serves is donated by its CDN sponsors; Cloudflare and Fastly are the main backends, Bunny and GCore regional and backup CDNs, and IBM provides DNS. Remaining costs, such as the origin servers and APIs, are covered by its founder, and it asks users to chip in through GitHub Sponsors and Open Collective.
Who runs jsDelivr?
Volentio JSD Limited, a company registered in England and Wales, operates the cdn.jsdelivr.net service and the jsdelivr.com website, according to its privacy policy. The project was founded by Dmitriy Akulov, and its About page lists Martin Kolarik as core developer. jsDelivr has been running since 2012 and describes itself as a free CDN for open-source files from npm and GitHub.
What is jsDelivr used for?
Loading open-source files, mostly JavaScript and CSS, straight from npm or GitHub without hosting them yourself. In our crawl the usual companions are jQuery, on 77.41% of jsDelivr domains, and Bootstrap, on 43.13%, whose own documentation links its files from cdn.jsdelivr.net. Carousel libraries are common too: Swiper is on 25.21% of jsDelivr domains and Slick on 15.43%.
How reliable is jsDelivr?
Its network page describes a multi-CDN set-up on Cloudflare, Fastly, Bunny and GCore, with load balancing that drops a provider in a region when its performance degrades, two independent DNS providers and origin servers in several data centres. jsDelivr says it serves more than 150 billion requests a month. For a file your page can't work without, a self-hosted fallback is cheap insurance.
Which JavaScript CDN is the best?
It depends on what you load. jsDelivr serves any file from npm or GitHub, while cdnjs hosts a community-maintained catalogue of popular libraries on Cloudflare's network. Once parked pages are removed, cdnjs has the bigger footprint in our crawl: 2,261,527 domains against 2,012,188 for jsDelivr. 680,794 sites use both, probably because different plugins and themes pick different CDNs.
