    I intend to have a site developed in a months time which I will launch then. In the mean time I was hoping to put up my own one page saying that we are launching soon, a bit contact details and perahp meta tags.

    Will this one page site do any damage teh site in terms of ranking getting penalised etc etc?

    Nope, I have that going on all the sites in my signature. Hubble Prints already hit the first page of Google but I have been doing some pre-emptive SEO in preparation for the launch.

    Holy crap - how long have you been working on backlinks for that 1 page that is PR 3/4?

    Is that one already getting traffic?

    Thanks

    To the contrary this is what you should do.
    You are setting the site context and beginning the aging process

    My business website has been sitting there for a while. I was in the middle of rebranding the business and changing focus a bit when I got really busy all of a sudden. I have a 301 redirect from the old firm. That is likely why it is so high.

    SEO comprises a lot of my work so I have a range of things pointing there. Cobble together a squidoo lens with some links pointing there. It will do wonders!
