First try at it.

Hey im pretty new to all of this but ive been reading threads upon threads and absorbing as much as i can. Found a pretty localized niche, bought the domain. Did some research on the keyword and it is not extremely competitive. My main question is: to achieve a high ranking on that page is a wordpress page and backlinks sufficient? Any answers or direction to an answer are greatly appreciated.

Also, if any of you advanced users are willingto help me out, I'll be willing to pay you for your help.

H1 tags (BOLD AND ITALICS) for the header which should include keyword. Buy keyword in domain if possible if not use domain.com/mainkeyword/ wp here

Build link wheels. Use rank tracker to check your stats and write OC for the money site and at least 30% unique on the link wheel sites.

build backlinks

add web 2.0 properties linked to money

add videos also

use all in one seo plugin

track incoming serches

load google analytics to see keywords that come in

Thanks for the response Closer.

OC = original content? And the fact that my domain name is actually the keyword is a good thing right.. I'll have to read up on link wheels., any suggestions?

Whats the domain extenstion and how many EXACT searches per month?

Everyone says only .com .org or .net extensions are worth it.
