madhavs1989 submitted a question regarding his medical website and how he should approach his first steps.

The thread is Internet Marketing for a new medical site .

The answers of his questions are applicable to any website not just in the medical niche. If you need any further assistance or something is not clear please use the comment form.

Firstly madhavs1989 said that he has hundred articles ready for his medical website. Madhavs1989 I just want you to make sure that these are all unique articles. If you primary traffic source will be google.com you need unique articles in order to get good rankings. Just make sure that your articles are not PLR stuff that everybody spams around.

Question#1: Should i upload all the 100 articles at the same time or do around 20 a week ?

No to both. Putting all your articles at the same time is definitely a no no. Even twenty a week is a lot. The best approach is to put one article each day. You can go up to two articles if you want to but not at the same time. Make sure you put a random timeframe between putting each article.

I don’t know what platform you use but if you have an option to schedule article publishing it would be great for you.

A good publishing plan would be:

First Month – One Article Each Day

Then every other day publish one article. That way you have content for about a year ahead!

Why Should You Publish An Article A Day?

Because you need to make sure search engines spider your website frequently. The more spiders you get, the higher rankings and PR you will have. If you follow my plan it is likely that your website will be seen as an authority in your field in a short period of time.

Why Not Publish All Articles At Once?

Because if you do that, even though you might have unique content google might perceive you as a spammer and sandbox your website. The first few days you will probably get spiders but after a while search bots will simply stop visiting your site because you don’t have unique content for them.

If you really want to go with the 20/week it is still possible and you won’t get penalty just make sure that you don’t publish all your articles in one day.

Question #2: My primary goal is to bring traffic to the website . Should i start working on the SEO as soon as i upload them or wait for the search engines to index all my pages and then go on about doing it ? How long should i wait?

From what I understand you probably have a basic HTML website. Now if that is the case make sure you have a sitemap. Check out this website on how to make one Google Sitemap. Sitemaps are a way to show Google your content location in an organized manner. A whole book can be written on this topic so if you need more info do a search. If you still have questions I’ll see if I can answer them - use the comments.

Back to your question. Many people wait a week before they start promoting their website. Personally I don’t and I haven’t seen any kind of penalty. Furthermore google will index your site faster. If you don’t do SEO ( We are talking about off page – e.g backlinks) the chances of google finding you are really low. So start building backlinks as soon as possible.

If you use tools as scrapebox and xrummer do no target your website directly. You will get sandboxed. If you are building backlinks manually don’t worry about this. If you want to know more about off page seo and get more backlinks I recently wrote a really in depth post on the topic – How To Build Links . I spent few hours writing this and many people would charge you money for this type of info so make sure you check it out.

So basically, start SEO as soon as your site is ready (sitemap,pages) and you publish your first post.

Question 3. Are there any ways to bring traffic to the website considering its new ?

You are doing SEO so you will have to wait a little bit to see the results. If you want instant traffic aside from search engines you can try:

• Forums
• Social Bookmarking
• Chat Rooms
• Yahoo Answers

Just try to think of places where people interested in your topic would hang out and search for info. In the next couple of weeks I will make a free video guide on how to establish an authority site without doing SEO - by relying only on content. Right now I am starting a self improvement blog and I will record step by step things I do to bring massive traffic from the first day. I will cover the above topics in depth and a few more. Make sure you subscribe if you are interested.

Question 4. Is it okay if i place ads initially ?Or how long should i wait ?

Well to be honest I am not really sure with this. Few things you need to consider:

What kind of ads are you putting?

Check your ad networks policies to make sure you don’t get in trouble.

Are you doing directory submission?

You might get rejected by most authority directories when they see that your site is filled with ads. So if you are submitting your site to DMOZ, Yahoo and other directories – don’t put the ads yet.

However, since most ads are JavaScript and google doesn’t fetch that data they won’t affect your search engine rankings.

I hope this post was helpful and I encourage you to ask questions if you have any! Have a nice day!

Here are the steps:

1. Go to blogger.com create one or two blogs, write short article or part of an article and leave a link back to your website ( put your url in the end of the text preferably with anchor text)

2.Go to wordpress.com and make 2 blogs, the same process as blogger.com

2. Go to some forums that allow do follow ( i don’t have much time right now but I will explain what that is later) signature and make few posts.

3. Go to Digital Point Forums ( just google it). Make 10 posts, then put your url in your signature preferably in anchor text. After you have 15 posts ask(though I am not sure if you had right for that before being a member for 7 days) for a review of your website in the reviews section.This is also a good place of learning Internet marketing/ seo and a lot of other useful stuff so if you are new you should use it wisely.

4.You can make s0me squidoo/hub pages to increase the speed of the process even more.

Thats how i got indexed in less that one week . Somewhere I read that you can get indexed by google if you purchase a link from a PR6 domain though  I don’t think its a good idea, cus the big G is against link exchange/ and buying/selling links.

What is blog?

It comes from the term “Web Log” and it is a place where individuals (like me) write about different topics and give their opinion about it. In most cases entries are displayed in chronological order. In some forums I have seen that people define it as a online diary. In my opinion its not true as you can write about many topics and its not necessary to be a diary type.

What types of blogs are out there?

Personal blogs – in that case it can be a diary, cus the person who blogs most commonly writes about himself.

Business blogs- this types of blogs are most commonly held by corporations and they have a lot of writers who write about different topics every day.

Niche blogs – That type is very popular in the internet marketing today. Basically the author finds a profitable niche, finds a product to promote, posts article/makes review of the products and promotes his blog. In most cases after certain time he sells his blog and starts again. My blog is an example of a niche blog but in my case I actually love writing about making money online and I’m not planning to sell it. (In the next articles I will show you how to find and choose a profitable niche)

Should I start blogging?

Well it depends on you – do you like writing? Do you have some extra free time and don’t know what to do then? Do you want to earn some extra cash ? If your answer is yes to any of these questions then you are qualified for a blogger, lol.
