Met a guy on dating website the end of Feb. We get along great, have engaging conversations, laugh a bunch, enjoy the same music, etc. We have been hanging out (movies, dinner, concert, etc.) once a week consistently except when either one of us is out of town. We used to text more but now its really just to arrange when to meet up. We do not talk on the phone. I also just recently found out that he is still on the dating website and is apparently active (I helped my friend put up her profile and I saw his profile). We have not spoken about exclusivity or what "this" is so my assumption is that we are casually dating.
Should I drop him like a hot potato or give it some time to see where things go?
Sounds completely passionless and without any direction - in fact you seem to be texting less. Ask him outright what's going on...or if you really don't care, drop him! You sound like an old married couple and you never even had the fun part!
Considering that contact seems to be backsliding, I would address it with him and then make a decision.
If you're looking for a relationship, it doesn't sound like you have one with him. You could just as easily have a standing date with a friend to go out and do fun things with once a week.

If you get along great, why would you "drop him like a hot potato" simply because you two haven't discussed exclusivity? You or he can date whomever you like until you have actually had this conversation, and it's not something to "drop" him over. My question to you is, Do you like him enough to tell him that you want something more than a casual relationship? If you do, then say so. But if you're not feeling it, then move on I guess. The bolded seems to indicate you have a good time with him though.
I was being facetious with the "drop like a hot potato" reference. I will have a conversation with him about it. I do like him but the fact that I am even in this quandary diminishes my feelings. Nonetheless, I appreciate all of the frank responses and actionable advice.

I agree with this, he sounds more like a friend rather than anything else from your post. Have you guys been intimate? I mean dating since February I would think there'd be some sort of physical intimacy by now.

I didn't want to be nosy, but this was my question as well. You've been hanging out since February. If you're getting bouncy, it's natural to not want the person you're having sex to not be having sex with someone else. If not, that might answer why he's still on the dating site and only seeing you some of the time.
