Specific Website Slow?

Ever since a few days ago one specific website is very slow to visit?
I have done the usual things like clearing the catche, going back in time etc but my internet browsing is very fast apart from when i visit one particular shopping website.
The shop told me it must be my connection as they don't have any problems being reported by customers so i'm baffled, the website does load but i counted 8 minutes to go from page to page on that site, for eight or so minutes the circle is spinning round trying to load in the corner.
Is this a server issue because if it was my connection would i not experience problems elsewhere and not just here?:huh:

It's more complicated that that.
It may be a routing problem. Your route to different sites may be different.
It is always an idea to try the site in a different way. Say using your phone. Or a VPN (even on a different machine). This helps confirm where the issue may lie.
On the whole though if I experienced that I would just go elsewhere. Unless maybe it was amazon, but they tend to work!0 -
