I seriously doubt the problem is with the above site but you can test yourself by using:
Admin > Configuration > Logging : Display The Page Parse Time [true]

You will then see at the bottom of every Zen Cart page, the load time for PHP & mySQL. Load your Zen Cart Home page then Refresh. If the times for both are greater than 1 second, the Server is slow / overloaded. These are the times listed by Linda, a few posts earlier and are a good comparison.


Also, for any potential Host you should only need to tell them you have 13 products and they'll know the site will not be a problem -- if their Servers are not overloaded that is.
During a low traffic time, I get the following.

Parse Time: 0.196 - Number of Queries: 157 - Query Time: 0.0933376732941
