Hi, I just want to gather suggestions from the community for "how to launch a website like BLAST!" The website could be anything like blog/ppc-focused/affiliate/e-commerce etc For example, i think, if following things are done prior to launch of your website, chances are you will get upto the mark quickly; - Having the list of dofollow blogs, forums, link directories, website owner contact information for link exchange request - Social Community presense over Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Digg, Hubpages, Squidoo, Google Profiles, Yahoo Answers etc - Have articles in hand for a month atleast, that will be used to post over sites like eZine (5 articles per day) - Bug free website (if its custom programmed) - SEO friendly website, by all means - Investement of atleast $100-$200 for directory submission like YahooDirectory and other higher PR websites Please be generic, because I am not talking about specific market or niche. Thanks
