I installed the plugin you described, its currently hovering around 8.5 to 9. It seems a bit high to me. Do you know what level it should be at?
I am on shared cloud hosting so no I can’t check this. When I do a reverse lookup it shows around 40k sites, because its a cloud host.
Hi Thanks for the replies. The site is running w3 total cache, so that isn’t the problem. I installed a fresh copy of wordpress, and joomla on a different part of my hosting and I encountered the slowness in response time. I too think its a server issue but my host is adamant that it’s nothing to do with them. I just wanted a second opinion before I went back to them.
Thanks for the help.
