1st you should have to focus on on-page content its mean you will make a goal of your keywords using to promote on your website, keyword selection is most important & starting point of any new website, select your keywords with 10 competitor analysis, check the keyword competition also, then use keywords wisely on your on-page content.

SEO strategy is also based on your competitor analysis, then it depends on how much juice you will put on it with your team or by yourself actually,

SMO strategy you know that most lucrative path for success in IM. definitely make facebook page, twitter account, google+1, pinterest, tumblr. these are most important for your SMO strategy. new things are picture attraction, Pinterest is used to attraction because now in 2013 image seo is most important, 2nd tool is infographics its very important nowadays & coming arena, mostly people dnt want to read full article, if you have a attractive infographics regarding your product or whatever you want to promote, its a juicy for your website

PPC is also very strong place in it, you will have to make a budget on monthly basis how much you will invest on PPC, then select which tool you want to use, in my opinion most attractive are google adwords & facebook ads,

your internal blog is good for your website updates, news, information, but also work on external blogs, they will also help to boost your ranking in serp

I think you should design your site with the user in mind while making sure that the platform you use is SEO friendly.. The whole purpose of your site will be to attract, retain, and serve site visitors, prospects, clients, etc. Then focus on the SEO of your site which will include titles, headline tags, meta info, internal linking, etc.

You can get a good idea which keywords you should be targeting for your SEO and PPC by examining your competitors. Of course, over time you will identify which keywords are working for you and which ones have value.

I assume your site isn't built on Wordpress since you referred to it as an external blog. You want to focus promotion on your internal blog since this will boost the ranking of your site overall.

THe best way is to have excel spreadsheet put all your links and titles in nested order, so you can track them. Usually Google and Bing Give you about $100 for start which is not bad for starting ppc, also keep in mind some aspects of it services are competitive and you need to invest a lot in your ppc to get result out of it. Please please please Do not go to external blogs especially like Wordpress and comment and think admin will approve you I get about 100 sapm every day and I just delete them, or mark them as spam.I also suggest watching the starting SEO from friday withe board.

Good luck with your new site
