    Hi I tend to agree with many when they say my Victoria website needs a modern redesign BUT my problem is the fact that I am with SBI and use the block builder system & the number of templates is VERY limited in comparison to many companies out there who offer web building services. When I first started the site I had more money and was able to afford someone to put a different header on it but now I am stuck with what I have.
    The crazy thing is that back in 2011 with the same template I had three times the amount of traffic that I have to day as well as 3-5 times the income that I am getting today.
    In my limited knowledge & from my experience over the last 6 years with this website I feel that besides the Panda & Penguin problems I think that people on the whole who are putting in for example Google adds using Google Adsense are not putting in relevant add's like they used to and are not spending as much per click as they used to . Therefore any income you are getting is even more limited.
    I also don't like the way the Internet on the whole seems to be putting a damper on your traffic. Like someone said to me a while ago maybe it's time for another topic/another website as this one seems to be going nowhere but downhill now matter how much I try (I have tried everything that I know of).
    Some people said that my site read a bit like an encyclopedia - I agree - the person that I hired in the beginning to write for my website was supposedly a professional writer but it doesn't look that way .On my limited budget do you know if there is any other way that you can make up a website not only to look good but to do well and most of all is easy to do and affordable ?. I ask this as I may be doing another one sometime in the future.
    So I don’t know what to do whether or not I should continue with my Victoria website and hope that it bounces back or to sell it & sometime in the future begin a new one (possibly with SBI or another web hosting/building company).

    Just to answer a few other questions from Others on this post.
    My site has around 120 pages (which I realize is not that much)
    my traffic is very low just now only about 150 or so per day.
    My earnings at the moment are VERY , VERY low. Only around $30 per month versus $200 + per month 18 months ago.
    No one can say whether a website will go up or down (nothing is guaranteed for any website- this I have learned over the years).

    I would very much appreciate any and all feedback that you have (no matter have small you think it is).

    Thanks much Craig
