EDIT: 1. First of all thanks to everyone who helped out. I appreciate it. 2. I remembered this site PageSpeed Insights[^] and I tried it too. I think it is more of the speed of your page though, but all looks good from that viewpoint. I wish I knew what the latency was. ###################### My web site is hosted on GoDaddy. I recently got everything set up and my site is simple and small. It has nothing to do with the web site, even if I place a small html file it is slow. Here's what happens: Weirdness Part I The browser cursor spins forever and then the page flashes up in an instant -- after the long wait. I decided today that it was enough and did some tracert testing to godaddy and winhost.com. After I noticed winhost.com was very fast I decided to try them out and see what would happen. Weirdness Part Deux I signed up with winhost.com and they said, we'll maybe send you and email in 1 day but if you don't get an email you have to print out this form (put your credit card info on it ) and fax it back to us to prove I am real or something. What!!??? So I'm checking my email every once in a while. Great customer service. Oh yeah!:thumbsdown::thumbsdown: my web site is http://raddev.us[^] if you want to see if it spins from your vantage point?
Hi raddevus, There are many factors that make your site works slowly
1. Internal Factor
- have you optimized all your codes?
- have you optimized your SQL query?
- how effective your code, connection and database?- External Factor
- server specification
- network connection
- total number of clients/sites in a server
- whether there are junks, applications that are installed on the server
- whether there are cron, scheduled tasks that run on the server
If you believe that you have optimized your code, then the problem might be on the hosting provider. I heard many complaints about Godaddy hosting services. They are not good enough for hosting. But winhost, although I never tried them, but I see many good reviews about them. I always use asphostportal.com to host my asp.net site. I feel comfortable with them

thanks for the info. I've tested using a few tools now too and it seemed like a lot of the problem was DNS lookup for the site.
OK... Good luck for you and hope you can solve your problems. :)
