no, electrum or multibit is ok for every day usage, I really don't see any point to use web wallets these days...any device, which can access web wallet had some application for its own platform.
can you please explain, why you are recommending such non-sense like web wallet?

I like Blockchain.info because my wallet is available on every device.

I would suggest running a full Bitcoin Core node for anything that constitutes your main stack. Unfortunately, I dont think I can trust the rest to keep my main stack over there.

blockchain.info is okay for the everyday use but please dont store large amounts in there.

cold storage <-

should i change my wallet?

same problem i am facing , as i lost a big bet on secondstrade because of its delay transaction , so i will change it today only , based on lots of people recommendations i will go for Electrum , same i will suggest you !
Hmm...what if something happens to my pc and i cant restore it how will i be able to login to the electrum wallet?
also where is the download link?

well my friends said , it is easy to set up(electrum) on a new computer and moreover you can store a lots of BTC in cold storage so there is no chance of hacks , but i will not let my blockchain.info wallet finish rather i will use it for day to day purpose only.

If you import the key from another wallet, you have to back it up separately at another file. However, when you setup, you should have a screen which tells you 13 words that is the seeds which generates the future Bitcoin addresses and you should copy that down. If you want to use the address which you had in Blockchain.info, you have to select the option "Restore a wallet or import keys".

I would recommend electrum, it has a lot to work with and pretty easy to export your seed and setup in a new pc if is needed also cold storage.

yes you should. based on my personal experience, I recommend Electrum for desktop and mycelium for android and paper one for long term storage. using web wallet is not smart at all and there are numerous threads of hack etc..
