a couple days? a week? a month? still waiting? After reading some of the success stories, I have been extremely excited about the potential benefits of this. But after about 4 short days, I am about to pull my hair out waiting for something that shows a sign of improvement to my site. I have never spent so much time checking backlinks and keyword rankings as I am now. The suspense is killing me.
One of the keyword phrases I am targeting is very popular, to the tune of around 16,000 per day. I am betting it will take a while to get ranked high there, if I ever do.
Google will take longer than anyone else. 3-4 weeks is about right to get the full benefit of your weight. I think it's normal to see a initial pop within 10 days.
I agree , started about a week ago for two single keywords and im noticing significant improvement, although im not sure whether thats the coop or my SEO knowledge (cough cough).
Well, the first results I have noticed after 5 days - the test site has moved from nowhere to top100 (for moderately competitive phrase). That's really fine, considering my rather small weight.
My Links via the beta MSN search climbed about 100 since yesterday, so maybe that is a good sign. Google has changed, although I know that will take time to update.
