What's A Realistic Timeframe For Article Marketing...?

Branlan17 · 11-14-2009, 05:34 PM

So I'm in an ultra-competitive niche. I've been adding all of PJ and Angela's links each month as well as social bookmarking and submitting to multiple directories for about 2-3 months... And most of my 30 some articles that I'm really focusing on are either nowhere to be seen, flittering up and down page 2, or just making it on to the bottom of page one.

I had an article hold #2 for 2 weeks and then for the past month it's been going up and down page 2.

What's a realistic timeframe for seeing these high competition keywords make it on to google's top spots? I know it depends on the terms but I mean is 6 months a realistic time to see a campaign come to fruition?

Cuz lately I've been getting 20-40 visitors per day from my articles and it's proven hard to increase that number : /

Ah well, I'll just have to experiment myself I suppose!

I believe it all depends on your competition's marketing/SEO efforts, the amount of similar content being produced, as well as the respective sites website ranking. Numerous factors come into play but I believe you're looking at 2+ months.

I hope this helps.
