One of the first things a serious poker player needs to do is buy themselves a poker book or two and read. Most of the strategy posts on here are good too. The negitive side of that is that they take it as law and play exactly 'by the book'. The way I look at it is that the book is only a starting point. You need to make it work for your style of play. Get a good sample playing by the book then adjust your game a bit. See how that works for you then adjust again. Find what works for YOU not what works for the pro's. Be prepaired to lose a little money while you make your adjustments. The suggested Bankroll usually is 200-300x the big blind for the limits you play. Bump that up a little and do 400-500x to be safe while you are learning your style.
The 'Experts' only can tell you the general strategy and will never be in the exact situation with the exact goal and exact mindset that you are in.
I'm not much of a writer but I hope you understand where I'm getting at. Too many begginers play exactly as they read and dont try to adjust and go broke. I've taken a lot of advice form here but I've also ignored the advice that wouldnt work for me.
