I got round this by installing the wp-supercache module at the recommendation of the Godaddy tech guys. It did work, but its a bit fiddly.

You are right, hosting on linux will solve it, but some people need windows hosting too (I also run asp.net apps)

The first problem I had was I couldnt even access my site to install the plugin, but eventually after a few refreshes it worked. Basically I did this:

* Download plugin from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/

* Extract the files and upload them to your wp-content folder

* go into your godaddy hosting account. Under content, go to file manager.

* Check the box next to wp-content and click permissions. Uncheck inherit and check Read and Write. Click ok (Yeah I know not good to make this writable, but its only temporary)

* Go back to your wordpress plugins page and enable the plugin.

* Next, go back into your file manager and go to wp-content/cache. Make this folder read and write too.

* Next, edit your wp-config.php file in your ftp editor and add

define(‘WP_CACHE’, true);

near the top of your file. I put it after the db collate define section.

* Now visit the settings page of the plugin and turn the status ON. You can only do this when wp-config is writable, which is why we did that. Save the page settings.

* Now go back into the file manager and make the wp-config directory inherit.

* Hit your site and you will see the pages start to get cached.

They should now get served faster and be able to take a Digging.

Hope that helps someone – Im with enlaceflorida though in that if you can, maybe linux hosting is more appropriate until Godaddy sort this.
