    Well you better believe it.
    If you work 12 hours each day and know what you're doing, it's very possible to get listed in 7 days. I was even indexed in 12 hours and all pages were included within the 48-hour mark.

    Don't spend anymore money. Do the work yourself then you can actually see first hand what has a positive affect.

    Much depends on the age of the site in question. If it is a new site, even with less competition, it is difficult to rank for short-tail keywords, may be you can change the keywords you are targeting to target longer tail keywords (that is more than three or four words)

    do article submission and press release with unique content.
    forum posting is also a best way to get backlink.

    thanks

    You cannot just submit articles and forget, you have to constantly submit more articles. Your SEO affords should be constant.
    Google and other search engines don't like spikes and unnatural link building. So do the same for a few months and you will see better results.

    BTW, I totally agree with some of the comments about unique articles. There's no point of paying somebody $7 per nice article just to submit to article directory. Article directories are full of garbage and you should create one article and then spin it like hell and submit to hundreds of directories.

    Hi, mg3hockey. It looks like you've got a real solid idea for a product to market. There are a lot of factors and dimensions in marketing, though, that could be affecting how people become aware of you.

    For instance, your keywords are "Spoof Card" and "Spoofcard." Those are not necessarily bad, but they're already a product name. Anyone searching for it already knows what it is, and will probably get the original Spoofcard site no matter what. It's just a theory, but maybe if you went after people who were searching for "anonymous calling" or "spoof caller ID" you might get different results.

    Think about the different ways you're presenting yourself online. What phrases are you using? Is your article marketing content informative enough that readers will give it a second look and click through to your site? There are so many dimensions at play in marketing that sometimes you have to tweak one or two things to get it right.

    So you created an article and submitted to only one article directory? Is it ezinearticles.com you submitted to and did you get it approved. I suggest you submit the article to atleast 25 directories. If you can submit to article directories which will syndicate your article, your article will get more exposure on blogs ,, You may consider having a look at this article marketing case study

    Is your keyword is a niche?
    Maybe you have many competitors so you get difficulties to break the competition.

    Try to submit your articles to ezinearticles regularly, this method always help my website.

    How many article could you have submitted with $200 and the rest of other things you mentione. Am a part time work at home business guy and currently on leave for three weeks. Every week i write nothing less than 50 articles, participate in forums, social bookmarketing, blog commenting, blogging and many more.

    Just trying to say you have to do more to get real result.

    An article a day with a link to your site is like having a friend on honeymoon all the time. Some of those friends will stay on honeymoon for a year and more.

    Ya, it will take some time for all the links to be accounted for. Your rankings will surely go up. slowly but they will..One thing you could do is do some personal social bookmarking on your articles. Get the stumble, digg and reddit tool bars installed on your browser and go to these pages with your articles and submit them. Google will find those pages with your links faster.

    You probably need to do more seo, like behind the scenes seo.

    Don't rely on outsourcing SEO and traffic. Write articles, do the social bookmarking yourself.

    One thing is true for sure it take time and continuous effort to rank better over time. Social bookmarking helps but only for a few days and if you paid for it than those links will be shifting from page to page in those social bookmarking sites as people you paid would be dumping lots of bookmarks from one account so those links get indexed one day and next day they are on different page which is yet to be indexed as the content changed.

    Article submission is almost like directory submission , lots of them are .info domain and last a year.If there are article submission sites that are old than those are worth submitting to. Build quality backlinks and not quantity as google's search market is nearly 90% according to firefox reports. Take time to grab a few nice juicy links rather than blasting article, bookmarks , blog reviews. They all work but for a little while only.

    Hey guys,

    thanks for some great stuff here.

    Haha I saw one comment on the site, year I am getting rid of it once my server expires.

    I am starting to see a shift in rankings over the past four days I have increased 3 spots and stayed there. I am mainly purchasing blog reviews and start some directory submission.

    When you saw juicy links, I have top notch articles written and submitted to well known directories, other then that I have no clue what you mean..any advice?
