How to flush (clear) the cache of your GoDaddy-hosted WordPress site

If you are having unexplainable troubles with your GoDaddy website, such as:

  • A page returns a 404 or 503 error for some browsers but not other browsers.
  • A page does not reflect updates you made, despite clearing your browser.
  • The correct page is shown to you, but other users get an older version.

Clearing your GoDaddy cache may resolve the issue.

Instructions

  1. Sign into your WordPress website with an admin account

  2. Click GoDaddy Quick Links at the top of the page

    If you don’t see the Quick Links menu, you should contact GoDaddy support to get it re-added.

  3. Click Flush Cache

  4. Wait for notice that the cache has been successfully cleared

    You should see two popups in the upper-right corner: the first indicates the request is in progress, and the second indicates the request is completed.
