When Will My Site Rank
I have been doing SEO for almost a decade...yes a decade. I can tell you that even in its early days of just adding Meta Tags and hitting 'submit' we could never tell when a website will rank.
Here's what I try to explain (and also include in my service agreements) to my customers; each search engine is different. Based on several factors can determine how long a website may take to rank. It could be 3 months from now, to several months:
Is your domain and website brand new? Then this will tend to take the longest.
If a website already has some established keywords or pages, then some of these keywords may jump in rankings within the SES next update.
Are we fixing any errors made by a previous web marketing company or individual?
Are there any backlinks currently to the website?
What sort of services will the client participate in? Basic SEO? Press releasese, article contribution? Blogging on a regular basis?
This is just a small amount of what is considered the factors of 'when will my site rank?'. Patience is key when obtaining good search engine rankings.
Ok... so what if you can't wait? Christmas shopping is coming soon and you just launched your ecommerce store on the web. Pay per click marketing is definitely a solution. It can be expensive depending on your target market, but it offers almost instant exposure and control of your budget.
