To keep it for income.
How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
There is always a lot of time use when a new designed web site is made. Obviously in the beginning there will not be a normal earning compared to the amount of time used. But over time the investment will pay off as long as the web site is steadily being renewed and the content keeps a high quality.
If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
I might have hired professionals who have specific “now how’s” in specific areas of web design and web promoting.
