I got abyss, php, myphpadmin, sql running a phpbb board.

If I use localhost, it will load up quickly, just like any site. But if I try typing my domain address bbbguild.zapto.org it takes forever to load up.

Any suggestions? It was slow when I was using e107 as well.

EDIT:

Actually let me add this. I am also using no-ip for now [[ see above ]], but I also have a domain. If I go to my domain "editor" and in fowarding settings I would put my IP address instead of no-ip. Would that make it faster?

Yes! As it will go directly to your server, no need to go to the other site then to your server

Do you have a dynamic IP? If you do you need to keep the address in otherwise when your IP changes you need to change it manually again.

I don't like no-ip. I have noticed they can be slow on many occasions, especally when it comes to dynamic dns...it takes them a while to change the ip's. I would just have the domain go directly to your computer, or use a service like zoneedit.com.

It takes a while because its DNS, DNS isnt designed for lots of changes. ZoneEdit is just as bad.

Actually, the site came up very quickly. It started loading almost immediately and was done with loading the frontpage in 2 seconds.

Your ping time (bbbguild.zapto.org) average is 129ms. Not too bad.

I use zoneedit i made "www.directwebmasters.com" go to my IP address, then i made subdomains like "forums.directwebmasters.com" but i did it like this: "http://www.directwebmasters.com/forums" That way when (and if as my IP has been the same for like 6 months now) my IP changes all i do is go to the A record i made (the one with my IP address) and change my IP out :D
