Well Ipower suggested I optimize my database, (Done) and disable plugins, (Done).

Didn’t help any- I have reinstated 5 or so plugins. I also installed a cache plugin but that doesn’t seem to help either.(DB Cache Reloaded Fix).

Here is Ipowers response.
“Thank you for contacting Support. For security reason we have restricted ping and tracert requests on our server.
There are various reasons why a website or web page loading slowly. The WordPress Plugins are a great way to add special functionality to a website. However, many plugins often increase the size of each page and load unnecessary CSS files and JavaScript. So be sure to deactivate any plugins which are not being used. Also, please optimize your database and images to increase the loading speed.

Additionally, you can consider using a caching plugin such as WP total cache or WP super cache to optimize the website for its performance. Caching can drastically improve the website performance by storing generated pages and serving them instead of creating them on the fly which involves lots of PHP processing and more significantly MySQL database access. ”
