Use a cookie-free Top Level Domain for static content
•For maximum efficiency use 2 domains
–www.example.com
for dynamic HTML
–static.example.net
for images
•Many proxies won’t cache Cookierequests
–But: multimedia is never personalized
–Cookies irrelevant for images
static.example.com won’t
cut it, because many cookies will be issued with “domain=.example.com”.
Unless you’re 100% sure you’ll only issue cookies with
“domain=www.example.com”, you’ll need to use a completely different TLD.
Yahoo!, for example, uses yahoo.com for dynamic HTML content and yimg.com
for images and other static content.
