I have made some minor changes over time but I don't remember what I did.

If someone can tell me what is wrong please let me know.
You changed the Headline Tim. Its always the headline.
Write 40 to 50 headlines on scraps of paper.
Throw them on the floor and arrange them best to worst.
Pull out the most engageing and enthralling ones.
Save some of the others and re use them as sub heads.

Then pick a sub-head,
Then build a dynamyte first paragraph.

80% of your traffic will dissolve after reading that much text.
So make it count.
