I would really suggest working with your FC or any RP LS you may be in first, especially if you know few people on the server. They are a ready source of friendly contacts so you don't have to try and bake a cake without any ingredients.
Structured vs unstructured is really a matter of personal preference. I tend to run only unstructured plots with a lot of twists and turns and intrigue, but this means the plotline can drag out for a long time. Many people prefer a Monster of the Week style where they sign up, go to location, defeat Evil Thing, then go out for beers.
