    Has anyone experienced any issues with GoDaddy’s managed hosting? I switched from the Linux based hosting to their WP offering and my traffic has dropped by almost half, the site is slower, and my pagerank has dropped.

  • GoDdady hosting is fine IMO. The last PageRank update was in 2013 – so we can be sure that hasn’t changed any time recently…

    Looking at your site, you have a Noindex,nofollow tag:

    <meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow" />

    This is blocking Google from your site.

    This is probably due to you having the discourage search engines setting on:

    Thanks Collin I forgot very time you update EDD plugins they stick a noindex nofollow tag back on there and I have to go in and change it (great feature EDD really helps ensure no one will use my site which is totally what I want). That isn’t GoDaddy’s fault although I am assuming that the speed issue is because of some other thing that they has turned off on my site.

    Great, glad you got it sorted!

    GoDaddy managed hosting should help your speed if anything…

    I just checked, looks like potentially you are using quite a lot of plugins? Disable and delete any you aren’t using any more.

    Looks like you are using a plugin called Zen Cache? I cannot comment on how good it is, or whether that could be causing problems – but perhaps I would recommend either WP Rocket or W3 Total Cache – they both work great.

    Also, call up Godaddy tech support – they are amazing – they will be able to help support you.
