Hey friends!

I'll get right to it. Recently I was able to acquire a good domain name based on my niche I chose. I work in the graphic design industry, however, I haven't launched more websites for myself in many years. I have a really good idea of what to do. I'm good with wordpress and creating content.

But before I do anything I first wanted to get some advice from some of the smart web hosting and website owners here.

Here are some questions that are on my mind:

1) What is the best way to create a lot of content quickly?
2) Should I buy a domain or using free blogs such as wordpress or blogspot?
3) Whats the fastest way to put simple/small sites together in order to have a bigger site? and should I build a big site instead of more smaller sites?
4) Should I create a facebook page and other social media links first?

I'm just curious what do you guys think.

Thanks
Paul

1) doesn't know
2) .xyz -> $1 it's my favorite for a blog , if you have the content no need to use a . com
3) One big site is easier to manage, because you will work only on it. But to have make some tests for SEO and visitors , It could be good to have 3-5 Small sites
4) Facebook, Twitter, Google+ are a Good way to share your content , with WordPress you can automate social sharing

Hi @Paul, If I am you, I would do as following ways
1) What is the best way to create a lot of content quickly?
Hire some good writers who are English native speakers and they can provide you quality content, of course is you need to spend a bit more money for this to get cool articles.

2) Should I buy a domain or using free blogs such as wordpress or blogspot?
Using both, but I prefer using domains to build new sites to using free blogs because you can control whatever you want on your hosting and your sites

3) Whats the fastest way to put simple/small sites together in order to have a bigger site? and should I build a big site instead of more smaller sites?
I don't know changes in the future but for now, I would suggest to go with small sites than building just a big site, unless you are a big company with more money to invest and ready to compete with other big sites. Building many smaller sites in specific niches have advantages.

4) Should I create a facebook page and other social media links first?

I'm just curious what do you guys think.

Thanks
Paul
Creating social networks accounts after you have published your sites, that helps you share your posts or promoting sites to your audience and getting traffic immediately for which you shared.

1) What is the best way to create a lot of content quickly?
I would say focus on quality rather than quantity. This should help your SEO and also keep your visitors coming back.

2) Should I buy a domain or using free blogs such as wordpress or blogspot?
It shows more credit when you use your own domain rather than a free WordPress or blogspot one. in addition its much more memorable.

3) Whats the fastest way to put simple/small sites together in order to have a bigger site? and should I build a big site instead of more smaller sites?
I would go with fwh advice as he knows his SEO stuff and is very experienced.

4) Should I create a facebook page and other social media links first?
Yes. social media is a must in today's SEO and in general connecting with your audience.

This is very interesting topic, so let's start from beginning
You have domain and know WP and have good writing skills. And you have idea what to do, then what you need is self hosted WP. It is more flexible then free blogs on wordpress or blogspot.
For content its best to do it yourself, write good informative content wort sharing, or you can find someone to write for you (who is on your niche and know a lot about it and know SEO).
Some marketers have motto "content is a king".
My suggestion is to grow you site to authority site.
Social media is good source of visits.

1) What is the best way to create a lot of content quickly?
Well, you can do it yourself since it's a niche that you know about. Other than that you can hire someone else to help with it.

2) Should I buy a domain or using free blogs such as wordpress or blogspot?
You said you already acquired a domain for it, so use that one. It's going to be the best choice to look more professional.

3) Whats the fastest way to put simple/small sites together in order to have a bigger site? and should I build a big site instead of more smaller sites?
If they would all be in the same niche, it will be better to put all your efforts into a single bigger site and only have to take care of one.

4) Should I create a facebook page and other social media links first?
Absolutely. Social media can drive a lot of traffic if you are active on it and are consistent. Never underestimate the power of social media for brining visitors to your site. This can help get customers/clients.

Good luck. ;)

If i where you, i will create a single site and focus on that one. A good name is a must for your brand. don't get blogspot or wordpress get a good hosting for your site.

1) What is the best way to create a lot of content quickly?
I don't know if I would say it's the best way but the easiest and quickest way would be to hire someone to do it for you.

2) Should I buy a domain or using free blogs such as wordpress or blogspot?
Always use a bought/paid domain. The free blogs are fine for some things but you will want a bought domain if you are want to look more credible.

3) Whats the fastest way to put simple/small sites together in order to have a bigger site? and should I build a big site instead of more smaller sites?
I would just do one big site. That way all you time, effort and money can be put into that one site and help it reach towards the top of the SERP's instead of trying to nurse many small ones along.

4) Should I create a facebook page and other social media links first?0
You don't have to create them first but I would recommend it. That way you don't get your site/s up and doing well just to find out someone snagged the perfect social ID's from under you.

Cheers!

You can hire writer to do that.

You should buy domain, .com domain, it's good for SEO, and you can expand it in the future

3) Whats the fastest way to put simple/small sites together in order to have a bigger site? and should I build a big site instead of more smaller sites?
One big site is better :) However, although you choose small site or large site, your post needs a quality also

4) Should I create a facebook page and other social media links first?
Of course, yes

if I were you,I could first go for freelancer expert first. You explain your need and how you need your design to be.pay for the service if its appealing to you.If it doesn't work,you can go to any buy/sale site look for a site with similar xtics you need if you have you choice of domain and know the niche then you sure know the kind of content you want for your site.

Is there a particular reason why you are looking to create a lot of content quickly? I would focus on quality vs quantity.


2) Should I buy a domain or using free blogs such as wordpress or blogspot?
I would go with the domain name/self hosted option. If you are successful you will eventually need to migrate off of the free platform, might as well start off on the right foot.

3) Whats the fastest way to put simple/small sites together in order to have a bigger site? and should I build a big site instead of more smaller sites?
Not sure what you mean by this, can you eloborate?
4) Should I create a facebook page and other social media links first?
Depends, what type of website/blog is this going to be? If you set-up a facebook, however will you be able to realistically post quality content?
