LOL It's the sites that are 'dead' - no new content anymore, or ever to come, with the same design from 2005 I'm talking about. So I figure, spend the $400 or so now, and if sales double then it pays for itself in x # of months. If it does not pay for itself then I know that my designs do what they do compared to 'professionally-designed' sites.
True, I'm sure if I spent $3,000 to have it designed it would look....like every other 'pretty' site out there. I have two friends in this business who did that and their sales never really went up. Four hundred I can gamble with (because I think some of the girls/content is still hot) than roll 3 G's.
Hope that makes sense. LOL One's business model is often fine-tuned to one's circumstances, as it were.

yes it makes sense. Furthermore, I wasn't even referring to "make it look pretty". To me, a professional design is about giving to the site what the site needs. See I didn't even offer my services, because I'm not able to do the kind of designs you have, and I think they would work better if they keep a consistence throughout your network. Plus, I figured you were talking about sites that were left out and probably have little to no upside, so I would never promise a result over that. I was referring in general, and no necessarily about you. If it was me, I'd keep them as they are in terms of design. But in terms of business model there are quite a bunch of alternatives you can do, and that's a very different story
