Case Study: SPAMfighter (Europe’s leading anti-spam filter developer) achieves faster global website performance, localized content, and 1M+ new users with Akamai Technologies

SPAMfighter packs a global punch with Akamai

SPAMfighter, a Copenhagen-based developer of anti-spam software used by millions worldwide, relied on its website for sales, downloads and community-driven spam reporting. Rapid global expansion exposed shortcomings in its previous content delivery provider: users in regions such as Asia experienced slow page loads (up to six seconds) and unreliable software downloads, harming customer satisfaction, brand reputation and increasing support costs. SPAMfighter needed consistently fast, localized web experiences and reliable download delivery without building costly infrastructure.

By adopting Akamai’s Dynamic Site Accelerator, Download Delivery and Geotargeting, SPAMfighter put content and downloads close to end users, with route optimization, caching and localized pages (language and currency) delivered quickly. The result was faster, more consistent site performance, higher completion rates for software downloads, increased traffic and reduced abandonment—adding more than one million users in four months—and the scalable global delivery needed to support further expansion.
