For a new website, I'd focus on creating helpful content and targeting low competition keywords first. Make sure your on page SEO is solid, improve site speed, and build internal links. Consistency is probably the most important factor for long term growth.
For a new site, I would keep the plan boring and focused: choose a tight topic, publish genuinely useful pages for low-competition searches, connect related content clearly, and make sure the site is fast and crawlable. Then update pages based on impressions and user questions. It feels slow at first, you know, but that feedback loop builds a stronger base than chasing links before the content deserves them.

Focus on improving your H1 and meta descriptions; these will be the most important aspects to start with. Also, focus on internal linking to begin giving authority to posts that receive few visits but need a boost.

Build topical authority by creating tight content clusters targeting low-competition informational keywords, then interconnect them with clean contextual links to boost your core pages.

Focus on quality content,
proper keyword research,
strong on-page SEO,
a fast mobile-friendly website,
internal linking,
earning backlinks naturally through valuable content or guest posts. White hat SEO takes time, but it's the most reliable way to build long term organic traffic.

For a brand-new website, I'd keep it simple:
Target low-competition long-tail keywords.
Publish genuinely helpful content consistently.
Build strong internal links.
Get a few high-quality, relevant backlinks instead of many low-quality ones.
Be patient—SEO takes time.
