Getting a CDN to put your content much closer to users does not require an awful lot of money. The vast majority of your users shouldn't be across half the globe; if you're a tiny local shop, then you're targeting local users; and if you're targeting multiple continents then it's not that hard to host stuff on multiple continents cheaply even if you're just a couple people, there are services available for that.
