Hi, I've currently launched a website on this keyword, and I'm currently building backlinks to it. However, I wanted an approximate time till I might get on page one.

Here it is:
#1 is youtube
#2 is wikihow

Thanks.

    You are trying to outrank both of those sites?

    Good luck to you! They have so much content, so much authority, trust and credibility, it is going to either take a truck load of money or them shutting down!

    LOL,

    What I think he meant was that someone's you tube video and wikihow pages were ranking #1 and #2.

    I noticed as of lately google is giving a lot of preference to youtube videos in the search results (No surprises there, since they own youtube).

    It will be reasonably tough to beat those 2 competitors, unless you have exact match keyword domain for example, yourtargetkeyword.com trying to rank for your target keyword search term, you know what I mean hopefully.

    If you do have exact keyword domain, there is a chance to beat them but it will take some solid work

      Yeah it's someone's video and an article from wikihow. Thanks for clarifying. Now I don't mind being #3, so new question: how much time for #3?

    Not a difficult task in my opinion. I'd suppose it will take 2 or 3 months. The only thing: the google Panda is unpredictable, so you should have a good website, don't over-optimize it
