Need help to start with a premium domain

Hey Warriors!

I've just snapped up a premium domain (youtubeseo.com), which gets 16,000 monthly searches and $7 per ad click. Now, I need a guru to give me some advice to make sure the site stays penguin-friendly.

I've created other niche sites, sure, but I've always used tools like SENuke and Scrapebox to rank them. I want to play it safe with this one.

Since it has so much potential to earn a very nice monthly income, I would like some input on how to rank it for such a powerful keyword (YouTube SEO).

I'm fine with writing 500+ word articles - I studied A level English and write my own articles rather than outsourcing. I'm thinking of creating some squidoo lenses with backlinks, as well as hubpages.

Any ideas?

      Quality links are important and yet avoid crappy links like spam articles, spam blog comments, spam social bookmark in a short period.

      These are the thing that lessen your risk.
      Mr Lim, the other day you advised a user go on fiverr to get backlinks. Please stop talking rubbish.

    I would be careful using Youtube in the domain name. Unless you've done your research and know for a fact that you are allowed to use their name in a domain, you run the risk of being legally obliged to give your domain to Youtube whenever they decide to send you a cease and desist letter.

    That means even if you somehow got your site ranking #1 for a million searches a month keyword and somehow received a PR of 9, you'll have to give it up. No redirects to a new domain, or anything.

    As long as I mention no affiliation etc, I should be fine (I think)

    Nissan.com

    There's an example, considering Nissan is a world-wide and massive car manufacturer, you'd expect that they'd want their EMD.

    If YouTube is a registered trademark, and I have to think it is, they can pretty much take that domain from you whenever they want.

        There's cases where Facebookxxx.com blogs exist, because in nature they promote the trademark. My site will be promoting their trademark, so I wouldn't see an issue.

    Actually, I received a cease and desist from Facebook a few months ago.
    I hadn't done any work on the site. Just bought the domain.

    I had to give it up. It's really not worth it man.
    They told me they would "vigorously" come after me. lol.

    I deleted it right away.

    Can't help but think this thread has put a massive downer on OP's internet marketing aspirations.

    I agree. I think too that you have to be very careful with this domainname.

    I'm using an article spinning software.
    To write and spin "original" articles.
    The software submits the articles within a couple of days to hundreds of high page ranked article websites.

    Why do people waste time with trademark domain names?

    Asking for trouble before you even get started.
