What is your SEO for Main Keywords like shopping,travel,money,business,digital,web,.....etc to get your site in 1st page in search engines? How many days do you take to your site in 1st page in search engines for these main keywords? why?
the quantification of efforts put in to reach first page can't be done but still it requires exhaustive seo and sem campaign specially when you are targeting most competitive keywords. if there is not much competition you will achieve first page ranking in about a month or as soon as robot crawls the page and find it relevant enough
No man can predict exact number of days required as Google's algo keeps changing. There's a lot of competition for the keywords you have mentioned, money is there but it requires lots of money and efforts to make it to the first page. I doubt anyone can do it without spending money. On the other hand, long term keywords are easy to rank.
Hi No one can predict that how much time later your site will be in top because its depends on sites that how much site is seo friendly regarding that main primary keywords.
I have a lot projects of top 10 ranking, I will take 2 months to give a website in top 10, If competition is high then I take 3 months to get target
