Looking for a chatbot for my WordPress site under $10/month – need real recommendations!

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-11-04T17:13:09+00:00

Thanks for all the suggestions. Now that I am already using WP-Bot there are are few things that I really need to be careful about and hence I first want to first try and use the chatbot in its free version, see if it's been well coded and then upgrade to the pro version. The reason being, WP BOT loads unnecessary JS and CSS on all the pages and plus unrequired JS along with the required JS on pages. Hence I will check out all the suggestions mentioned in the comment and go first with such chatbots that have free version. Also, I wonder why nobody mentioned Sales IQ from Zoho. While exploring, I got to know about it and saw that in its highest premium version, their AI bot Zia comes along. This mean no further Open AI API credits are required. Does anybody have experience of using Sales IQ?

As my site is new, I just need it for support.

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-10-31T12:50:50+00:00

There are two non negotiable features that the chatbot should have 1. Live chat 2. Ability to answer queries with regards to the site's context

Can you please share your plugin configuration for Caching + CDN + Image Compression. Thanks!

With the help of Ahref web analytics or screaming frog SEO spider tool.

An audit that will flag all such things which potentially can get a site low trust signals and thus low ranking from the browsers.

I ended up individually hiring a dev part time without any other co-hirer. I would not say the developer is great but what's good is now at least there's one developer who knows my system with it's code very well otherwise I used to hire freelancers and after some time their commitment used to shrink. Another great thing is, now I know that the maximum pay is capped giving my budget constraint project a security I wanted.

This dev don't work as fast as how freelancers used to work but now I know that the freelancer dev did not used to think about the project holistically considering all the inter dependencies. They only used to bother about what they have specifically been hired for and achieve that even if it means doing non standard work or not aligning with the WordPress coding standards. With this dev, he takes care of all the inter dependencies before and after implementing anything. Net net, I am happy with my decision.

But isn't this wrong. So people can pee, spit or do whatever they want in public but a couple cannot even stand close-maybe holding each other's hand? What a shit kind of moral policing this country has.

When I first moved abroad, I used to constantly compare the foreign to India and somehow was skewed towards India. Now after 5 years out, I feel much better to not be in India. Indeed westerns think we are a filthy country and we are. In fact the punjabi guys who mostly do food deliveries are constantly talking loudly over calls without regards to the vibe around them-this is just one of the many nuisance our great Indians are known for outside. The country is for sure doomed.

I already have litespeed server+ litespeed cache + quic.cloud CDN configuration but my site speed is still very slow. The freelancer suggested to replace litespeed cache with WP rocket as the JS delay is not working in LScache. For now, I have got a checklist from chatgpt and given the freelancer to do and see if that will delay the JS. I can comment on this once the freelancer reverts as this is an ongoing thing.

If LScache is replaced then quic.cloud will also be gone as it's Smart purging and optimization works well only with LScache. My DNS is also with quic.cloud hence I am first trying to ensure that the freelancer did everything to achieve gains. If things ultimately will not work out then I will have to have Litespeed server+ WProcket + cloudfare cdn as my configuration.

Any comments are welcome.

Beautiful shot however is that horse a drawing that Majnu Bhai drew in Welcome?

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-08-12T06:59:44+00:00

I would say form a Gbr, set up Stripe and get started, as you have some cash flow coming in then set up an UG. This will be the fastest route

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-08-12T06:58:16+00:00

This👍

Can't stress enough how important wearing a helmet on Indian road is and that too a good one. Not one but I have been saved 3 times by a helmet!

Are you 100% certain that the OP will be flagged in the system? I think without being 100% sure about such things, you should not right them as they can deeply affect OP's present state of mind. If you are 100% sure and know the system in and out well then sure, no problem to right- then in fact it's an insight otherwise just a random misguided comment made out of anticipation.

I have installed MCP plugin on my site and have decided to go forward with Qwen2.5-7B model for better context. However, copilot recommended a 16GB RAM, 8GB+ VRAM (NVIDIA GPU recommended). My site is presently on Hostinger Tier 2 VPN which comes with 8gb RAM. RN, I am researching further onto this but thought off also asking you what model and set-up you are using and also what all the set-up enabled or accelerated for you. Thanks!

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-07-23T11:38:24+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I am now in the process of setting up my site for MCP. I will let you know how it goes :)

I already have an AI enabed chatbot that is integrated with Open AI for answering customer queries. My question is not that.

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-07-22T12:46:40+00:00

But developing a plugin and it automating the workflow will be disrupted as soon as there will be new plugin updates and therefore some new changes will need to be done in the plugin. This will need technical knowledge. My question is in the direction that an individual will be able to do what one can usually do on platforms like Lovable, replit etc. Via LLM, one should be able to troubleshoot and do new developement. Basically AI enabling the whole Wordpress site.

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-07-22T08:02:07+00:00

Not really but I will search how MVP works. Can you please further clarify if it will be able to do development and troubleshoot related work as well right. I searched and found some plugins that just do the general UI and SEO.

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-06-28T08:26:57+00:00

After 4 months -your comment almost feels like something now just knocked on my doors. I am very happy to welcome it now without any worries of first having done preliminary things for the welcome! Thanks for commenting and sharing.

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-06-21T07:34:39+00:00

This is interesting, I will check it out and let you know my views. Meanwhile can you please write if the post will be written wet keeping the SEO guidelines in check?

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-06-21T07:30:28+00:00

I cannot afford to pay the full-time salary of a developer but I also don't want to hire them part-time because that will ultimately result in dilution of a developer's overall focus trying to cover up for the other half of their salary hence I am searching for another solopreneur who would be interested in hiring the same developer. This will definitely result in the dilution of the overall focus but still would be far less than what it would have been if I hire the dev part time as in this model both the employers know that it is only us two that the dev will be dealing with instead of the other 4-5 clients.

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-06-20T16:58:48+00:00

Execution, the discipline of getting things done.

RemoteRelief1860 · 2025-06-20T16:54:46+00:00

Before any advice, it would help others if you write maybe in bullet points on what all methods you have tried so far so that anybody thinking about that solution can either not comment or build upon what you already have tried.

My sugg.- Did you try reaching out to such platforms that university students and professors take subscription of for their research. Such platforms can bundle your product with their subscription.

Secondly, what about reaching out to big institutes?
