If I didn’t have a clue how to launch my site and didn’t know my arse from my elbow in social media, here is how I would launch a site today;

  1. Get a domain name. Exact match? I’d certainly consider it.
  2. Put up a holding page with primary keywords once and one link to the domain address. Under optimise but theme the page with the keywords the site will target
  3. Get a link from another website
  4. Spend the next 1-3 months getting your content together behind the holding page.
  5. Spend the next 1-3 months on Digg & Stumbleupon - DO NOT SUBMIT YOUR SITE
  6. Say you have 25 Pages
  7. Create A Piece Of Quality Original Citable content or linkbait built around a related or exact keyword - a top ten list :)
  8. Launch Your Site (replace your index file with the new site)
  9. Get a friend to Digg & Stumble Your Citable content

You get

  1. Launch Traffic from Stumbleupon - perhaps thousands - Can you capitalise?
  2. Organic links from Digg and perhaps traffic
  3. A visit from Google
  4. Hopefully a decent ranking for your page

Well it worked for me the other week.

Then you start blogging. Link out. Remember for you it will probably all be about the content.
