title: Host on KeyCDN
description: "Accelerate your Hugo site globally with a KeyCDN integration. This tutorial shows you how to set up your static site as a GitLab page behind a KeyCDN pull zone."

[KeyCDN](https://www.keycdn.com/) provides a multitude of features to help accelerate and secure your Hugo site globally including Brotli compression, Let's Encrypt support, Origin Shield, and more.
## Assumptions
- You already have a Hugo page configured
- You have a GitLab account
- You have a KeyCDN account
## Create a KeyCDN Pull Zone
The first step will be to log in to your KeyCDN account and create a new zone. Name this whatever you like and select the [Pull Zone](https://www.keycdn.com/support/create-a-pull-zone/) option. As for the origin URL, your site will be running on [GitLab Pages](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages/getting_started_part_one.html) with a URL of `https://youruser.gitlab.io/reponame/`. Use this as the Origin URL.
![Screenshot of KeyCDN's pull zone creation page](/images/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-keycdn/keycdn-pull-zone.png)
While the origin location doesnt exist yet, you will need to use your new Zone URL address (or [Zone Alias](https://www.keycdn.com/support/create-a-zone-alias/)) in the `.gitlab-ci.yml` file that will be uploaded to your GitLab project.
Ensure that you use your Zone URL or Zone alias as the `BASEURL` variable in the example below. This will be the user-visible website address.
## Configure Your .gitlab-ci.yml File
Your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file should look similar to the example below. Be sure to modify any variables that are specific to your setup.
```yml
image: alpine:latest
variables:
BASEURL: "https://cipull-7bb7.kxcdn.com/"
HUGO_VERSION: "0.26"
HUGO_CHECKSUM: "67e4ba5ec2a02c8164b6846e30a17cc765b0165a5b183d5e480149baf54e1a50"
KEYCDN_ZONE_ID: "75544"
before_script:
- apk update
- apk add curl
pages:
stage: deploy
script:
- apk add git
- git submodule update --init
- curl -sSL https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/releases/download/v${HUGO_VERSION}/hugo_${HUGO_VERSION}_Linux-64bit.tar.gz -o /tmp/hugo.tar.gz
- echo "${HUGO_CHECKSUM} /tmp/hugo.tar.gz" | sha256sum -c
- tar xf /tmp/hugo.tar.gz hugo -C /tmp/ && cp /tmp/hugo /usr/bin
- hugo --baseURL ${BASEURL}
- curl "https://api.keycdn.com/zones/purge/${KEYCDN_ZONE_ID}.json" -u "${KEYCDN_API_KEY}:"
artifacts:
paths:
- public
only:
- master
```
Using this integration method, you will have to specify the Zone ID and your [KeyCDN API](https://www.keycdn.com/api) key as secret variables. To do this, navigate to the top-left menu bar in GitLab and select Projects. Then, select your project and click on the Settings page. Finally, select Pipelines from the sub-menu and scroll down to the Secret Variable section.
The Secret Variable for your Zone ID should look similar to:
![Screenshot of setting the Zone ID secret variable](/images/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-keycdn/secret-zone-id.png)
While the Secret Variable for your API Key will look similar to:
![Screenshot of setting the API Key secret variable](/images/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-keycdn/secret-api-key.png)
The Zone ID and API key are used to purge your zone its not strictly needed but otherwise, the CDN might deliver older versions of your assets for quite a while.
## Push your changes to GitLab
Now its time to push the newly created repository to GitLab:
```bash
git remote add origin git@gitlab.com:youruser/ci-example.git
git push -u origin master
```
You can watch the progress and CI job output in your GitLab project under “Pipelines”.
After verifying your CI job ran without issues, first check that your GitLab page shows up under `https://youruser.gitlab.io/reponame/` (it might look broken depending on your browser settings as all links point to your KeyCDN zone dont worry about that) and then by heading to whatever Zone alias / Zone URL you defined.
