Launching Your Blog: First Impression Counts
You can't just submit your website to a search engine just because you have purchased or registered a domain name. There is more to it than that. You have to be prepared with what you will be presenting the public.
I suggest that you don't dare submit your site if it's not yet ready to accommodate visitors or Internet users. Just imagine how disappointed people would be when they click onto your site and finds an "under construction" message, or a notice that your page is "coming soon". That would be a poor appeal to have as a first impression.
In the first place, the reader or, say I visited your site with a purpose. I am interested in something that you offer. I might need the information that you are supposed to provide, or I want to browse on a product that you claim to sell. I might have bought a product from your site if it was up. Despite the fact that I have read your notice of "coming back", there is a very small possibility that I will comeback to your site.
If you have a blog - don't leave the messages saying 'Just testing' or 'congratulations and welcome to my new blog'. Don't even think about writing 'Welcome to my blog, over the next coming few days I will be...' Just remember, the internet has no concept of time, but humans do. If I come to your site and find a 'Welcome to my blog...' post with lots of promises, but you don't deliver, why should I trust you with my time? My money? My business? The truth of the matter is, I won't.
I can not list everything that you have to look unto when you are about to launch your website. But, here are some guidelines that you should observe:
Broken links (always check your links before you upload to a site)
Awful color schemes (Yellow and Red? - Try pastel colors)
Tiny fonts - I like to be able to read without pushing my nose to the monitor.
Difficult navigation - I want consistency and clearly labelled links
These are points that you might want to look into when you launch your site.
