What To Do With Old Affiliate Site With Organic Google Traffic

Hey everyone,

It's been a long time...

Our site https://www.barelist.com/ hasn't been updated since 2018.

The site was mostly affiliate driven.

At our best we had around 120,000 unique visitors a day and now it's around 15,000-20,000 a day.

We've done some other businesses since we stopped updating the site, none which really require much of my attention any more. Since I had some down time I'm trying to decide if I want to spend some time on Barelist or just move on to starting something else.

I didn't even notice our email hosting was down and our twitter account with nearly 200,000 followers was suspended lol

I'm curious what you guys would do with the site?

99% of our traffic is coming from Google.

We did annoying things when we didn't care like pop-unders, etc... which we would remove if we started working on the site again.

Is it worth revamping the site (only our galleries are responsive for example) and trying to build it back up?

Besides affiliate / cam traffic, what else is there to promote?

Would it be worth keeping the old indexed pages (making them modern design friendly) and pivoting in a different direction with the traffic coming in? Or is there still money in promoting paysites?

Thanks!
