Strategy wise, wait until the game is ready.  If I click on something and just get a promo all I'm likely to do is classify you as a spammer and not go back to your pages in the future.

I started out a couple of months ago and my strategy is to try and establish a reputation for quality, so people know that if they download something of mine, they are getting something worth downloading.

Yeah, you should always tray to make your games special so people know they are playing/downloading your product.  What I like to do is put, "By CoolGames.Co" (My itch.io name) to indicate that this is my game.
