Keep it as far away from anything affiliated with reddit, make sure the fine upstanding chaps in any of the threads dedicated to Eve are aware of you being in good goonstanding, and include the name of your corp, its members, and see if people will hook you up with any fun things.
be careful of who you have in the corp, and don`t give roles to anyone outside a decent affiliated gooncorp.
Make sure you have a plan, and the tools for accomplishing that plan, indy, make sure you have either a hauler or a few hulks, that kind of thing,
Pvp? when word gets around you are affilliated with goons, you will be thrilled at the competition.

I'd recommend asking this question in the main eve thread. They are generally very helpful in assisting newly registered forum members with basic questions like this.

I'd also recommend immediate access to the goonwaffe wiki in that thread, there is lots of good suggestions there.

Don't just start a corporation, no one wants to be part of a single corporation, start a full alliance like OPERATION BLACKLIST

Get to a point where you don't want to kill yourself for playing Eve. Then follow it up by not wanting to kill yourself for remapping to Memory Charisma.
If you've managed that the rest of the mechanics are pretty simple.

This thread might also help new players to get started right, or at least give a pretty good clue on how NOT to do it.

Good luck with your EVE experience, it really is a great game.

Just don't.

People who will join you will be there to rip you off, or will be terrible at life universe and everything and you will hate them.

So just don't.
