Well I don't appreciate your attitude and your name seems to say it all. The frequency with which I post here has no bearing on my knowledge or my business ventures or my success at them.
I made a sig too large accidently. It's been remedied since. Your board name seems to imply a lot about your online persona, but that is as far as I'll delve into childish ad hominem exhanges.
If you had shown tact in your reply to me I'd be more inclined to give advice. Despite the obvious disrespect I will still answer you in part.
In blogging, content is king. RSS is your friend. Submit your feeds to *as many places as possible*... (edited out) If you already have existing sites with decent PR you can and will be indexed (edited out) in 1-3 days with *smart linking methods*(edited). Your RSS feeds and ping list will also help you *TMI*(edited).
When you start a blog, add posts and edit the timestamps to older dates *TMI*(edited), also providing a much larger initial content base for when you are actually ready to launch. The further back the better, but it depends on how much content and initial work you wish to put in.
*Build a sitemap*(edited out entire paragraph for TMI)
Use a good balance of strong tags, links, h1/h2/h3 for what you would like to appear important to the search engines, *TMI*(edited out. My biggest suggestion for you is to NOT link directly to a sponsor or use your blog as a tgp. (Too much good info edited out) Include thumbs if you like or pictures here and there, but the driving force behind blogs is text. Make your keywords count. *TMI* (edited)
Keep tightly defined categories if your blog is niche specific and avoid extraneous or irrelevant posts. *TMI*(rest of paragraph edited out)
Your permalink structure is up to you but I would advise against using dates as part of it as it dilutes the relevance of the rest of the URL.
Interlink, cross reference, use good anchor text for links, and build build build. You can add updates to show up in the future and I suggest you use that feature to display *a few*(edited) new posts a day. If you want to do more, fine... If you want to do less, fine. *TMI*(edited a lot out)
Exchange links with (edited out) different types of sites within the same niche (edited out). Don't have too many outgoing links. The more inbound links without requiring a recip the better. *TMI*(edited)
That's all I'll share for now. I would have probably shared more if you had a different attitude. I took out half of the info after writing it and removed any references to anything specific.
