    Default Can't figure out why my site is slow.

    Hey Zenners,

    I read the knowledge base, faq, and searched around a bit in the threads. I can't seem to figure out what is slowing down my website. It seems like there must be a setting saying don't load the website until all of the pages have loaded or something.

    I would really appreciate your help.

    I'd be talking to my hosting site about what is wrong with the server ...

    You have nothing on your site to take up any speed that I can see from a casual glance ...

    You can try turning off Google and see if that changes anything ...

    Thanks for the quick response!

    The Godaddy guy said that the CSS was making the pages wait until all of the objects / pages were loaded.

    Is it possible to edit the CSS to have things load better? Would this be worth it?

    Should I just byte the bullet and go with a dedicated server?

    Not when you can get better hosting for less cost by choosing someone far more reliable than your current one.
