    Braking occurs for the following reasons.

    1. Your server is on the devil on the horns (in the USA), even ping runs for 150 ms.
    2. You use GoDaddy virtual hosting (and, most likely, cheap tariffs), on which there is a terrible overselling and eternal braking due to overloading of servaks.

    Do you want a quick return - buy at least VDS from a normal hosting provider and closer to the target audience.

    • Target audience is in the USA. Probably all the same thing in hosting. Thank you - Yuri
    • For verification, you can take the VDS for a free test and check. Many give. I came across GoDaddy, iPage and the like - terrible brakes. - user194374
    • I tried to open the html file with the text, it opened instantly and there are no such brakes. Apparently it's the same in WordPress. Do not tell me which way to dig? - Yuri
    • HTML with text does not require processing and is simply given by the server unchanged. Wordpress is a set of PHP code, and a considerable amount, for processing of which you need a lot of processor resources. In addition, we need to refer to the database, which can slow down on its own. - user194374
    • You can try to put an "empty" Wordpress and check. If it has brakes, then the hoster is most likely to blame. If the “empty” works quickly, then the configured Wordpress slows down. For the purity of the experiment, you can put Joomla! To completely eliminate the influence of Wordpress. - user194374
