Alright, so due to family issues I was unable to buy my domain this weekend. I'm not setting a deadline for myself, but by next weekend would be nice. Here's my to do list. If anyone can think of anything else it would be much appreciated as its my first domain.
buy domain (.com/.net/.org)
purchase hosting for first month to test company
code simple under construction page with custom logo
link to blog already established elsewhere
Code contact form
work on coding rest of site within one to two weeks
create google sitemap
submit to directories/google, a couple weekly minimum
cross fingers and hope PR goes better then blog and the orders start rolling in
