Alright, I wouldn't classify myself as an IM noob, but I have around $100 to invest from past ventures, and I'd like to put it into an authority site, but invest as little as possible.

I know what they are, how to SEO it, and so on, but I have no idea where to start.
I have a topic in mind (not keyword), which I'm pretty knowledgeable in, so writing my own content shouldn't be too hard.

Where exactly should I start? Round up all keywords I could write about, then research each one and organize them by difficulty to rank and UV's/month?

I honestly have no clue where to start, I have ScrapeBox and WP knowledge, so SEO and set up should be a breeze.

Thanks
 


Definitely do a ton of keyword research on your topic. Also, figure out all the ways to monetize the site.

Don't do what I did and build authority sites that are on topics you're knowledgeable in, but neither popular nor profitable.

My topic pretty profitable. There's lots of Amazon products, and a good amount of Adsense advertisers, but no CPA or anything like that.
 
Adding content consistently should help you get recognized by search engines and visitors as an authority site. I think of an authority site as being the most comprehensive source in that niche. So, I would plan every category I can think of that's related to your topic. As you get started, you could start developing all the sub-categories.
