How long to wait?

    I have been building some back links to my site for a month now. How long should I wait before I could see the results of my hard works?

    The site is about 7 months now but I haven't been active before on it. I just started this January on developing it seriously.

    I am sure you are doing hard work to promote your site... The good time is not so far now, next google PR updation is expected any time... So you can check out results of your hard work in a few days from now.

    Yea, I think it just takes time. It could take anywhere from 2 months or longer to see any results. But it really depends on the keywords you are going after.

    Please wait for 2 months or more for google cache of your links and then you will expect good results from your site.

    Hi, Chancey

    In my own experiences, if such backlinks are located on those high PR (above 6) sources, they would usually be picked up by search engines within 48 hours. Your own PR would not affect the indexing progress. Of course, a ping service would always be helpful for this purpose. :)

    Have a nice day,

    It actually depends on the following:

    a. How competitive your keywords are
    b. the quality of inbound links that you are getting.

    Choose some keywords which are not too much competitive. Work daily for around 3 hours, working sensibly in getting backlinks, continue this for next 3 months and you will surely start getting traffic from search engines.

    Also, optimize all the pages of your website other than optimizing only home page.

    Actually the Google PageRank/PR that counts... the PR that you can't see... the PR that is a ranking factor (although a very small ranking factor that has almost no influence on how you rank for a particular keyword phrase)... the "actual" PR is being updated constantly.

    The Google Toolbar PR means nothing, is NOT used by Google in their ranking algorithm, and is always out of date.

    More than likely, your on-page/on-site SEO is not that great OR you are targeting competitive keywords that are going to require more inbound links from other sites than you currently have.
