Show HN: Any UX suggestions for my auto dealer website?

And in the footer, there's a link to DealerOn: https://www.dealeron.com/ A web dev agency for car dealership websites. I quote: "We help over 3,000 car dealers..."

This looks very much like spam.

Maybe you should take some of the money you charged for building this and hire a UX consultant.

The popups are intrusive. I have limited patience for that kind of thing when shopping online. When there's money to spend (and car money too), my mental Internet filter is in the strictest no bullshit mode. Popups lower trust, go unread and would have sent me back to Google.

If you're going to do animation stuff like this, it had better be perfect. That said, I think it's tacky in the same way that the marquee tag was tacky, i.e. just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Oh, also, "LIVE HELP" buttons invariably connect me to some idiot chatbot. Being spamfucked by a chatbot is unpleasant in the same way that being startled by a retail employee asking if I need help is unpleasant. Generally, if I need to contact your business, I'll do so of my own volition. Might want to consider that there are other people who have similarly negative reactions.
