That’s a nice start. I am looking forward to the rest. Also, I think the following are important in the initial phase:
-How many people will run the project? A single person, or a team?
-If a team is required, assembling the team and division of labor
Yes, these are important points. Along with this, I currently plan to mention something about the logo. I will add it later.
Updated.
Hello Friends,
Along with the logo, the site’s colors are very important.
I found a good article regarding this topic.
For example, yellow represents temporariness, while black represents quality but also expensiveness.
RED: It forms immediately behind the retina layer of the eye; therefore, while perceiving the color, you feel as if it is coming towards you. It is the most used color, evoking excitement and high energy. Red is a color that stimulates the subconscious the most, and is sexy, dynamic, passionate, and attention-grabbing. Often preferred in clothing, red represents an athletic, strong, passionate, excited, warm, lustful, lively, and extroverted structure. It is frequently used especially at sales points where attention is desired and in the food industry because it stimulates the appetite. Red is also generally preferred in the logos of companies producing for athletes and young people. Red also appears as a status symbol. This color is frequently used in sports cars like Porsche and Ferrari. Since it attracts interest and gathers attention, most party emblems are red. Being a stimulant, dynamic, passionate, attention-grabbing, and appetite-stimulating color (giving the message “Eat a lot!”), red is used extensively in sales points, the food industry, and fast-food restaurants. Red is dominant in the logos of daily newspapers, considering that it looks pleasing to the eye and is alluring.
PINK; is the symbol of joy, affection, cuteness, happiness, vitality, and love**. **It symbolizes novelty, especially cleanliness in an emotional sense, and general success. It is a lightened version of the intensity of red. However, unlike red, it is known to reduce appetite. It is a color that makes people feel comfortable and relaxed. Therefore, some large stores use pink in their interior decor and attract attention with pink uniforms. It has been determined that people make payments more easily to a person wearing pink.
PURPLE: Parallels intelligence, consciousness, and insight levels. Since it is a royal color, it recalls elegance and wealth. It is also a mysterious, spiritual, and emotional color. This color is preferred in products that appeal to emotions.
Creativity, tolerance, and thinking power are associated with purple. There is no more effective color than purple for providing concentration. Purple is used by mystics, great artists, thinkers, and those who guide societies with thoughts and ideals. It is used for luxury products and brands related to education. With its cold and hot characteristics, it means culture, copyright, and mystery.
BLUE-GREEN: The combined use of blue and green colors evokes hygiene and healthy things in the subconscious. Therefore, it is ideal to prefer it for hygiene products.
DARK BLUE: It is the most serious color. Dark blue gives a reliable, solid, and sure impression in police and pilot uniforms and is also the preference of the banking and finance sectors.
BLUE: Since it creates an image of cleanliness and purity, blue is generally used in water packaging. Half of the siren-shaped lights found on police vehicles are red, and the other half are blue. (Blue is used to make the police car visible from a distance, and red from close up.)
A political party choosing blue as its corporate color gives the message that the party carries elements of depth, serenity, trust, and hope. Banks use the blue color in their logos to emphasize their depth and magnitude.
Since blue, unlike red, is a color that inhibits the eating instinct, food companies do not prefer blue much.
YELLOW is the color of the sun. It is a bright and warm color. It is a symbol of attractiveness, movement, knowledge, joy, and comfort.
• Yellow is also an indicator of temporariness. For example; fire is yellow, it is temporary, yellowing leaves fall. The yellow rays of the sun are temporary.
Car rental companies often choose yellow as their corporate color. The message is this:
“The vehicle you are using was given to you for a certain period. Use it and bring it back!”
This is the reason why taxis are yellow. In fast-food restaurants, yellow is often used together with red. Here, the message “Eat a lot!” is given with the red color, and “Eat quickly and go!” with the yellow color. Banks in the world do not use yellow, the symbol of temporariness, in their logos. Because banks constantly emphasize that the money deposited in the bank is not temporary, but permanent. It is very suitable for use at sales points. The yellow and black combination is often used in places where attention is wanted to be drawn, such as parking lot walls.
• Psychologically, light yellow connotes joy, comfort, optimism, self-confidence, intelligence, desires, and spiritual development. It instills affection, joy, and hope, and symbolizes humility, knowledge, and wisdom.
Bright yellow tones have an attention-grabbing, cheerful, and energetic connotation.
Dark yellow, on the other hand, connotes depression. Therefore, it is not used in environments intended for rest.
GREEN: Green evokes freshness and healing. It is the symbol of nature, naturalness, health, and balance. It calms and gives confidence. It has been supported by research that it facilitates and accelerates creative thinking. Dark green is the color of money and prestige. The use of green is suitable in sectors where prestige and security are important.
ORANGE: It feels like energy, vitality, health, and satisfaction. Warm, natural, sincere, and cheerful structures prefer orange. Orange is formed by the combination of red and yellow. Therefore, it carries the strong aspects of both colors. Orange creates a bright, lively, friendly, extroverted, happy, and childish perception. It should be preferred in business lines where the target audience is children and young people. Vivid orange colors are used in sales points due to their attention-grabbing features and in fast-food venues because they are appetite-stimulating.
WHITE: It arouses feelings of cleanliness, brightness, simplicity, and innocence.
It is a color representing chastity, hygiene, purity, victory, peace, joy, surrender, compassion, and justice. White emphasizes the cleanest, and therefore the easiest to get dirty.
BROWN: Brown is a color that evokes consistency, continuity, and wealth. Brown, also called earth color, reinforces the sense of security in a person. Earth tones generally create a positive effect. Brown, an important color for the home and food industry, evokes healthy, natural, and organic products. It can be easily preferred by sectors serving in these areas.
BLACK: Black is a very strong color because it has a physical structure that births all colors. Since it destroys light, it is a color that minimizes the distraction of elements that might distract perception and thus provides concentration. Because it evokes darkness and night, it is perceived as a mysterious, strong, classic, and elegant color. Black is the color of high-priced products. Since it is a heavy color, it can create an impression of falling or sinking. For this reason, it is not used in airplanes and ships. However, some brands can strategically use black consciously for their products, which may want to create the perception that their product is an elite product, not a cheap product, but that owning this product will provide profit in the long run.
GREY; is formed by the combination of black and white. It is the symbol of seriousness, loyalty, and silence. The eye distinguishes and perceives grey quite easily. Although grey is a diplomatic and heavy color, it represents motionlessness, slowness, and seriousness.

I will include this in the article as well, sir.
I look forward to your thoughts on the 1-year process.
Hocam güzel yazı. Özellikle renk açıklamanız çok işime yarayacak. arşive attım. Teşekkürler
Yes, the colors shared by @yerdemli are very useful. Can you recommend something for a 1-year-old?
@babbab I have never worked directly on SEO. For this reason, I cannot say anything for a 1-year period.
@oki can you say something about this?
Besides this, in your article, you said to post 1 piece of content every day. You said to schedule the other content and not post it immediately. Besides this, you had added to open social media accounts.
This is exactly where I have things to add: just like on Blogspot or a website, scheduling should also be done on social media. I think that whenever a piece of content goes live, social media posts should be scheduled for the exact same time or a few minutes later.
These adjustments can easily be scheduled with the Hootsuite app.
Note: Do you use tools like Hootsuite? If you do, we should list them as well. This topic you started is turning into a handbook.

I made the addition, sir. I think such an article is necessary. It would be useful for those who are just starting out.
First of all,
Thanks for the post, let me add a little something.
If you are going to use Tumblr and Blogspot (even if it is just to get hits), you need to be careful; when you give too many outbound links to a single site, Google penalizes this from a certain domain or blog. I think it would be more beneficial for Google to provide links alongside authoritative sites every 4-5 posts.
I am making an addition
First of all, it was a nice introduction. @yerdemli thanks for the quote about colors, it must definitely be taken into consideration during the website setup phase.
If I had opened the topic above, I would have written pretty much the same things. However, I found the part about whether the domain should be a brand name or contain a keyword debatable. If you can have a domain that both contains a keyword and is easy to remember (they are usually taken, you might need to buy them), you will have acquired a stronger brand. You would have to work very hard to place a name like xmarka com into people’s memories, which means high advertising costs. Less advertising is enough for generic names like sigortam net to be remembered. Or I don’t know, the direct visits seohocası receives are probably much higher than cyrptosam’s, because the latter is harder to remember and type than the former. Cyrptosam offers more useful information, rises in search engines, and because it deserves it, it will eventually surpass the other. But your chosen brand can prolong this process.
“Becoming an authority in its field” can be added to the project goals. Even if there are plenty of other sites providing similar content to yours, follow the developments in your field closely and keep your visitors informed so they don’t fall behind. I think news and innovations about the sector should be shared, even if the source is competitor sites. Users of your site shouldn’t feel the need to visit other sites. Or conversely; your competitors’ users shouldn’t pass by without checking your site wondering “did I miss something”.
Along with colors, user experience is also very important. I think the general structure of the site, page layout, content, and all functions should be reviewed and updated from time to time. Help from some analytics sites can be obtained on this subject, but the best thing is to get feedback from the target audience through surveys or one-on-one queries.
Set aside time for R&D. The scope of R&D may change depending on the project, but for internet projects, a regular working list like this can roughly be made:
-
User experience (Researching ways to increase visitors’ time on site, number of pages browsed, participation in discussions, and social media sharing)
-
Sector and competitor analysis (Reviewing local and foreign applications in your field. It is useful to examine sites not only in terms of content; but also design, site functions, their social media presence, and even their backlinks)
-
General scanning (Do not neglect to do R&D on the side while browsing the internet. Know that the first sites you encounter when researching any topic do not appear by chance, and question the reason why. Evaluate those sites both in terms of user experience and SEO. Consider applying the features you think you should have on your own site.)
Just as it is necessary to dedicate regular time to the site, I believe dedicating time to R&D is equally important. How much time you will dedicate is up to you.
Since I’m already on the subject, let me add a few principles that I personally find meaningful; but do not ignore that these consist of my own observations and are open to discussion. In fact, I think it would be better to open separate topics and discuss these:
Google -just like us- takes paid things more seriously! Therefore, I recommend that you prefer paid options in everything from the site’s theme to hosting, from running AdWords ads to SSL certificates. The general logic is this; if someone is not avoiding costs for their site, they are a professional, and their site is permanent.
If you see an accelerating train, get on immediately! When social media is mentioned in SEO discussions, Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and Instagram are mostly listed. A few years ago Instagram did not exist, but now it is one of the most important social media platforms. If you research a bit, you will see that there are many more sharing sites with millions of users. If you had noticed these sites while they were still in the growth phase and registered, you could have gotten generic usernames, and this would have been a significant advantage. Scoop.it, for example; when used correctly, it is a rare boon for both SEO and traffic. Finding successful, growing sites and positioning yourself correctly there is, in my opinion, a task you need to do regularly throughout your project.
These are the first things that come to my mind. @babbab has started a good discussion, I hope other member friends will also contribute as much as they can.
The Google paid part is really too open to debate, so I didn’t want to add it to the text and cause confusion. I added the other parts. Thank you for your interest.
Nonsense, really nonsense. I stood here and wrote for 2 hours. I expressed my thoughts. Then I got an error. Apparently there is a character limit. Afterwards, everything I wrote got deleted. Very nice, yeah. Awesome.
I wish I had done that, because I really wrote a very long text. I am upset, and when I reported it to the site administration, instead of asking anything about the data I lost, they made a statement resembling “didn’t you see this somewhere else?”. Anyway, they said they would fix it if they have the means.
Hocam ilk yıl yazınız gerçekten güzel. Sabır, bilgi, yaratıcılık ve yararlılık ilkelerinin açıklaması olmuş. İlgiyle takip ediyorum.
We cannot continue. We’ve hit the character limit, sir (!)
