    Hi Tom

    Unfortunately, in situations like this, the only thing I know to do is increase the resources available. That means moving to a VPS or a managed dedicated server. If you have access to a Sys. Admin to setup a server for you, you could also look at an un-managed dedicated server. You don’t know how many sites GoDaddy have on the server and it isn’t up to you to choose so there, unfortunately, isn’t much else you can do other than increase the resources available.

    Hi Andrew,

    No worries – I thought this may be the case, like you said the server my website is on may be getting over used!

    I may look into a self hosted server as we can over-spec the server.

    Thanks again!

    For sure.

    If you have access to a Sys. Admin, someone that can setup Ubuntu (or your chosen Linux distro) and configure the server, then you could also consider Digital Ocean: https://www.digitalocean.com/. We’re using it for this site and are super happy with the value and performance.
