Didn't you watch the Super Bowl???
Don't call tech support. Call and ask for Marketing -- that's where everyone is.

Shows you how effective the ad was. I'd forgotten all about that. :-)

Maybe they would like a few testimonials as to their speed to use in their next ad campaign. (devil)

I'm getting very close to saying it's time to "Go Daddy."
Hoping that's not how they came up with their name.

I've always liked Go Daddy as a registrar. This forum is my forst experience (that I know of) with them as a web host. So far I'm not impressed.
On the other hand, it's hard to find a flawless host.

Dave,
We have forum members whose hosting is through Go Daddy, who aren't having problems.
I'm losing patience, but until we can isolate the reason(s) for the extreme lag times, I won't be looking to change horses.

So it's the forum that's slow - I thought it was my computer so I got a new high speed Laptop. :-$
I guess it's ok that the forum is slow I don't read fast anyhow. :/

Too slow, too soon after the last episode.
As much as Go Daddy says it's nothing on their end, we may have to test that theory, in the only way we can, which is by changing our hosting company.
Stay tuned.

There are certainly others in forum land who have no idea what a ping is let alone what we should do with that number. Do you want us to do something with those numbers & if so please post step by step directions.

It is slooooooooow here in KS as well.
I just did a ping and it ranges from a low of 58ms to a high of 79ms

Here are instructions.
http://www.mymommybiz.com/seo/howtoping.html
You can ping by a web address, or a server IP address.
It shows the latency, or time in milliseconds and any packet (data) loss along the way.
I am attaching my test results for the IP, and the url in a screen shot.
If there are server hops they are usually shown in the list (I didn't see any in my test). I'm hoping the Go Daddy people will find something like this useful in problem solving the trouble.
Not sure if 50-60 ms is good or bad. I also tested Google, and it was 11 ms, our own websites were 13 ms average.
Hope this helps,

Those pings really aren't that bad, just not great. It would be bad if you were real time gaming, but it wouldn't cause this slowdown.
Dee found the real problem, Beehive is sql database driven. Hosting companies run the sql databases on seperate servers than the hosting servers. It's an internal routing problem. I had the same problem on WOE several months ago, the only fix was to change hosting servers, which the providers don't like doing for you.
