Is Your Digital Product Falling Short of Its Potential?

How a Social Media Sports Website Transformed into a Market Leader

Imagine having a promising digital platform that isn’t fully engaging your audience. You know your product has incredible potential, but inconsistent user experiences, frustrating functionality, and poor data presentation are holding it back. That’s exactly what one rising social media sports website experienced—until a strategic partnership with BadTesting changed everything.

The Challenge: A Platform That Could Do More

This website was designed to connect sports enthusiasts, but several obstacles stood in the way of success:

• Inconsistent User Interface: Users encountered design issues across different devices—from blurry videos on desktops to blank cards in the global feed.
• Functionality Flaws: Critical features like video controls on iPhones, search functions in messages, and group chat creation were unreliable, leaving users frustrated.
• Disorganized Data: Sports-specific information was poorly managed, making it difficult for fans to find accurate statistics and insights.
• Performance Problems: Slow load times and inefficient pagination led to high user churn and low app store ratings.
