Hi there! I have uploaded a website to godday, windows plan hosting for a year. The website itself is really light weight. The biggest file there is the JQ file.
I have no idea why is so slow.

I think there has been a bit of an observation by a few folk on this forum (most noticeably by Halls), that godaddy's service has deteriorated in general. To put it politely. :)

Most shared hosts oversell their servers since most websites aren't running at capacity 24/7. But to my understanding, the really big players like GoDaddy jam every server to 2 - 4x capacity. Overselling is done typically to work the averages. But when you go way overboard with overselling, peak times are going to slow everyone's site to a crawl.

There is likely not much you can do about it if you are sure your site's code isn't at fault. Probably time to either jump ship to a better host (just about anyone else, but Halls has had great results with A Small Orange, the host that is currently housing this site), or get a hosting package upgrade, perhaps to a VPS.

You type in why godaddy sucks

or why not to to use godaddy and my video comes up first :)

Leave them immediately. If you have a small site with not that much bandwidth usage I will host you for free.
