Once the SEO foundation is done, what would you do next?

larrymorton · Monday at 3:08 PM

Thanks for all the replies to my previous thread. The general advice seems to be that, as a complete beginner with a brand-new domain, I should focus on getting the technical/on-page foundation right and building useful content before spending money on backlinks or ads.

That's what I'm planning to do.

My question is more about what comes after that foundation is in place.

Once I have solid technical SEO, on-page SEO, and a reasonable amount of useful content, what would you consider the fastest realistic way to start generating traffic?

Would you continue with the long-term SEO/content approach and wait for the site to gain traction, or would it make sense to experiment with paid traffic at that point?
I've been told that the peptide nice is pointless to try and outrank competitors unless i have deep knowledge of parasite SEO, and the best and fastest way to traffic & sales is ads, its that simple.

And where does black-hat traffic/ads fit into the picture, if at all? Is that something that's reasonable to experiment with once the site has a solid foundation, or is it still a bad idea for a brand-new domain?

I'm completely new to off-page SEO and paid traffic, so I'm trying to understand the progression rather than jump into something blindly.

I would not treat paid Traffic as an either or choice. One useful test is sending a small amount of Traffic to the pages you eventually want to Rank and seeing whether visitors actually engage. If the page can't hold paid visitors, more organic traffic probably won't fix the underlying problem.

however i would retain SEO as my primary strategy for the long term but experiment with paid traffic once everything else is set up. traffic from ads will deliver leads nd sales more quickly than SEO which takes a while to kick in. however i would not consider using any black hat traffic with a brand new domain as that would be rissky.

I'd keep building SEO while testing a small paid campaign on the side. Ads can give you traffic and data much faster, while SEO takes time to build.

I wouldn't bother with black hat on a new site though, especially if you want something long term.

Thanks for the replies everyone, starting to understand the distinction now, but I want to make sure I'm interpreting the advice correctly.

When people say to "keep blackhat off your money domain" and mention throwaway sites, are you basically saying that blackhat traffic is mainly useful for short-term testing/quick sales on disposable landing pages, rather than something you'd use to build the long-term organic presence of a real business?

If that's the case, what would be the legitimate equivalent for my situation?

In the Canadian peptide niche, the usual Google/Meta paid-ad route seems largely unavailable. If I want to test whether paid traffic can actually produce conversions without using blackhat methods, what legitimate traffic sources would you experiment with first?

I’d keep SEO/content as the main play and use paid traffic to test which pages and offers actually convert. I Wouldn’t touch black-hat traffic on a new domain until you understand the basics and know what you’re risking.

after having done my homework i would stick to the content or SEO and tries paid traffic on a smaller scale. Imho black hat should be treated as a different experiment,not something that can be used for a brand new domain launch.
