Get a theme for wordpress that let's you setup your link list.
HowlingWulf sell's one that looks pretty good.
Get your links plugged in, and some good text for google to spider.
Find a traffic network that has your niche, so you can filter down to that niche and buy some skimmed or pop-under traffic. I'd shoot for 1K/day to start with and watch your GA to see if your surfers are staying around and clicking off, or if they are just shutting down the tab
The next 90 days spend time each day writing 1 - 1000 word post on your niche, might want to stick some pictures or a video in there to help with "time on site" so when google starts sending traffic they will stick around for a while. Funnel them back into your links page.
Once you find a source for skimmed/pop traffic that is staying around and converting for you bump up the daily buy
Good luck!
