We are currently working on a SEO optimization for Sigmatrader. We want the site to engage users who are interested in stock simulation, and later we will add live market data. I am unsure whether to target this as a game or as a "stock" keyword. Surely users who search for stock are looking to trade real stock not a simulator. What would be the best keywords for a site like this to use. Additionally how long will it take for Sigmatrader to show up in Google Search results? Best, The Sigmatrader Team - http://sigmatrader.com
