Sae Luan Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I'm hoping someone can share some advice with me. I started out back years ago by purchasing a domain name through godaddy for a blogspot blog I had. As time went on, I switched to a wordpress blog and upgraded my godaddy accounts for a ton of stuff and started hosting my blog with godaddy.It worked fine for a while, but for over 2 weeks, I've barely even been able to log into my admin panel for my wordpress. I get this - I get this when just loading the website often now too. I'd say about 75% of the time. IF I am able to log into the admin page, once I click to add a new post or anything else in the admin panel, it will go to this page about 95% of the time.I'm super annoyed right now. I've tried everything godaddy suggests about slow loading wordpress installs, and I've gotten nowhere. I'm starting to think I need to change hosting providers.So, anyone who has any experience with any of this.. any steps I can take to fix this issue? If godaddy is just crap, which I'm being led to believe, who should I be hosting with?Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Scorpio Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Yep there definitely seems to be something up server side. Get on godaddy technical support and have them take a look at it. It is not normal behavior. If you need to test wether it is something with the wordpress install then try installing wordpress again on a subfolder or better yet create a subdomain to test on.

Leia36 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Here are a few things you might try 1 Disable all your plugins and re-enable one at a time to find the problem plugin. If that doesn't work then step 2 2 Try adding a caching plugin to WordPress to minimize database calls. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/ If those steps still don't work. read the article here. I know it gets very technical, so If it is too much for you then contact your server support. http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-admin-even-33-incredibly-slow Hope that helps Edit Also this plugin WP Sanitize : Auto WordPress Optimizer Plugin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sae Luan Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Thanks for the feedback. I found out today I have a Windows hosting plan. Since WordPress is a PHP based program it functions best in a Linux environment. That's what I was able to find out through support. The reason I didn't contact support in the first place was due to a couple of bad past experiences with them, but I decided after trying literally everything else that I would contact them one last time before changing hosting providers. Hopefully their suggestion to change my hosting account to a Linux account will work. Personally, I had no idea of anything to do with Linux or Windows as far as hosting goes.. I just bought what seemed to fit what I needed. Luckily the change over to Linux is free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
