Wrong forum section. What it doesn't indicate on your first post is which hosting package you're using along with these stats reports.

The query in question is quite complex, involving multiple JOINs and subqueries, and it's also using the LIKE keyword, which can slow down queries significantly, especially when used with wildcard characters (%) on large tables.

There are few things can be done but its time consuming would suggest hire a developer and assign him/her task.
