The www.WizardofVegas.com website went through a dramatic change today.

At first I thought the change was just for smart phone use -- and that's where I first saw it. I thought the smart phone app was changed because Google is now ranking "smart phone ready" websites better.

But then I looked at the Wizard's site on my desk top and saw the change was widespread.

In all the years I looked at that website it was because of the forums and discussions about gaming. Now that is buried in the new format.

I am sure this was prompted by the ownership change. The Wizard sold his sites to a company that runs online gaming sites.

While subtle changes to websites to keep up with current trends are usually smart, radical changes such as those made to the Wizard's site can cost visitors and hurt traffic.

What do you think about the changes? And if you visited that site before, how do you like the new format vs the old?
