You seem to be holding on to your established site, almost with nostalgia, and I can understand that, but that's not the way to be effective when it comes to building traffic. You have to be prepared to start out on the right course, even if it's new.
Try "inertia" and "lack of time/energy". I don't think nostalgia has any significant positive part of this. (I have lots of negative feelings about the kind of negative attention the site has gotten me, which is the primary reason I frequently consider abandoning it altogether.)
Again, thank you very, very much. I am working on some of these issues. This has all been extremely good feedback.
Inertia and lack of time/energy are understandable, but unfortunately that's a sure fire way to have another 7 years of non-results.
You mentioned not having great web skills, but you don't need to in order to make money online. You just need to first find out what you should be doing, then stay the course actually doing it. Good luck!
