Speed & UX Overhaul for drt.fm Website

Job ID: 39270775

Budget: $25 – $50 USD

Our website, drt.fm, is functional but requires a serious speed and UX upgrade to enhance user engagement and performance. Right now, it operates like a reliable but sluggish Toyota, and we need it to perform like a sleek, high-performance Mercedes—similar to deepgram.com.

? Key Issues Impacting Performance & UX
1️⃣ AI Chatbot Optimization
? Slow Load Time & Interaction Lag

The Drty Bot takes 7 seconds to load, slowing down the homepage significantly.

AI response times feel delayed, affecting the overall chatbot experience.

? Unclear Purpose & User Flow

Instead of acting as a dedicated assistant, the bot offers access to multiple other chatbots, which feels confusing and lacks a clear value proposition.

The call-to-action (CTA) isn’t strong, leaving users uncertain about the next step.

? Chatbot Visibility Issues

The bot disappears when users scroll, making it forgettable and reducing engagement.

There’s a CTA button linking to external apps placed within key chatbot info, which is distracting.

2️⃣ Website Speed & Performance (Next.js & WordPress)
? Slow Homepage (Speed Score: 33)

The homepage loads too slowly, increasing bounce rates and hurting SEO.

Excessive requests and poor caching contribute to inefficiencies.

? Design & UX Concerns

Navigation isn’t intuitive, making it hard for users to engage with the chatbot effectively.

The overall UI needs a modern, polished look inspired by deepgram.com.

The bot should be understandable at a glance because users scan, not read.
