Based on a few trace routes and pings I have run on your website, it appears to be hosted with godaddy.
To tell you the truth, I’ve been wondering how long it would take for your website to catch up with godaddy’s horrible web hosting. What I mean by that is that your website has lots of interactive features, which require mySQL calls, which are pretty server intensive.
In the interest of full disclosure, I come from a web hosting background, but will not mention the name of the company because I do not think it is right to advertise yourself when putting down another company, particularly a competitor. I will tell you that it always frustrated us when customers would go to g daddy and try to compare their service to to a full-service web hosting company.
Again, I hate to be so down on their web hosting service, but for most businesses the cost of downtime greatly exceeds the savings they get from go in with an inexpensive web hosting company such as godaddy.
I will give them credit for a least having an American call center with pretty friendly people working, who seem to care little bit more than the average call-center, even though that’s not really saying much. 🙂

We experienced loading problems as we added more widgets, video, chat, co-comment, MBL, ads, etc. I have noticed other sites posting that they were removing widgets to speed site loading. Hope this helps.

But the widgets make the site! I love all of them!
