    Hi, for on site optimization the title tag is the most important aspect. off site it is inbound links. a good tool to use for on site optimization would be ibp (internet buisness promoter) it will compare your competitors keyword density and repition vs your site so you can see wether you are overusing or under using your targeted keywords. ibp does cost money but you can download a trail version for free which will give you a good gauge.

    By the looks of your signature and post count, you already have a good idea about off site optimization.

    Only with some few points we can't tell you about SEO. It would be better for you if you read some SEO books and learn through forums

    Press Release
    Article

    Blog Commenting etc to generate some good amount of traffic

    Make sure that you don't stuff keywords in your content. Add alt image tags to your pictures.

    My best reply will be hire a SEO company as its your first site and no one want to be a loose here in this moment at least.....
    if you want a try just try of all seo stuff................bear in mind its risky.

    I know little about this subject, but what I do know is that all the experts have become so by using a trial and error system. Keeping what works and forgetting what doesn't. Hiring an SEO expert for your 1st site will teach you alot, then from there you can do it yourself.

    just make sure you take action.

    most sites and businesses fail for one reason.

    lack of action

    If your site is just starting off, definitely do on-page first, then afterward go get yourself quality backlinks.

    On page first.
    But make sure you make use of Google Webmaster tools. Submit a site map, use analytics...

    Original Page Title and link. If you're selling a product, try to make the product title and page information original in any way you can.
    Content really is very important and don't trust anyone who says it isn't Google believes in rewarding hard work, so if you just copy/paste content you'll fail.

    And don't forget to let others do this for you too, add "share this" buttons to all your pages.
    It amazes me that plenty of people still don't do this. It takes very little time, and you never know how many people will find your highly original and interesting work worthy of bookmarking or sharing on twitter FB, Myspace, Blogger...
