Best Blackhat Forum

Hello good people out there!
I'm opening a new thread to discuss something that has been troubling me for some time!
I
already own a well established website about the local company of my
father.I have been getting some serious conversion rates (i.e phone
calls,enquiries etc) and my website appears
on the first page of
google for some good keywords. The only problem is that i use a rather
slow, nulled theme that i found somewhere about 5-6 years ago. I'm
considering changing the theme to a newer one; a paid one which is
thought to be extremely fast and generally good for SEO,plus it is
updated for additional security . However i'm kinda afraid that i might
lose my rankings if i change the theme. Is it true ? i haven't made any
SEO tweaks except keyword placement, bolds,italics and some meta tags in
my website as it stands right now...
What do you suggest? Shall i make the transition? Is there any way to compare my current and my next theme ?
Thank you in advance


MODS I'VE JUST SEEN THAT I HAVE REPOSTED THIS IN ANOTHER SUBFORUM...COULDN'T FIND IT BEFORE...PLEASE REMOVE THIS THREAD AND SORRY... :-(

I'll let it go, some people might not see your other thread. It's a good topic/question.

I like to follow the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mantra. HOWEVER, it's worth testing because you could be leaving a shitton of traffic on the table so to speak by keep an old clunky theme.

What you could do, too, is install the theme on a sub directory and start building content and traffic and leave the other one alone. Simple start building up additional content and cross link it to the older theme content.

When i saw a reply from NonCorformer i thought that hell let loose the beast...Fortunately he's here to help again :) :)
Useful tips,as always mate...I think that i will follow them
repped of course
