Did something similar for a niche directory site—used Airtable as the backend and pulled product data into WordPress. At first, I used the Airtable image URLs to save space, but later switched to importing them into the media library. The biggest reason? SEO. Images hosted on the same domain showed up better in search and worked smoothly with image sitemaps. Got that tip while reading about crowd funding link building on Crowdo’s site—helped me look at the bigger picture beyond just speed.
