we can get ranked with 2 to 3 months with white hat SEO off page techniques.

Honestly, this is an impossible question to answer without seeing the site, the keywords, and the competition. What one person says is competitive another might term as extremely hard.

It also depends on what kind of risk you can stomach.

Best guess would be anywhere from 1 to 18 months.

It took me 2 months- but my market was unsaturated

Belong to many factors. But in the case you do the best SEO job then you should expect more than one month or above. Don't make everything top too fast

It takes 3 to 4 months to rank a site..
Crawlers rank a site every three months.
If you are getting lots of backlinks for the particular post, then you can get top ranking...

If the keyword is considered high competition and the sites ranking for that keyword are good, high PR sites--- it will take more than 3 months.

Disclaimer: This is based from my experience only but then again the timeframe and results may vary based upon the methods you are using and how competitive the keywords really are.

I would suggest if you want the keywords to rank faster, do paid ads instead.

It takes nearly 2 months to get a top page rank but, it all depends on the strategies that we follow. Firstly, We need to analyze what kind of strategy to implement so that it will help to reach people in a simplified way.

It's fully based on keywords , if you select competitive keywords mean it's take some time to rank in google search page .

Hi, For Long tail keywords it will consume less time to rank may it take 3 months, But for global keywords it take very much time..

It generally takes 3 months only if worked properly.

Yes, you will rank in 2 to 3 months with white hat SEO off page techniques.

We can't say straight way how long it will take to rank. Roughly we can say it will take 3-6 months. But that's depends on the keyword competition.

Yes it totally depend of keyword completion. I think long tail keywords will consume less time instead of competitive keywords.

You can get ranked with 2 to 3 months.

Sorry guys but are you really so confident that this person will rank his website.....without know his website and the real situation.....These days it is 40/60 that you really will rank your website in the top....This is only my experience.

Hi Sana,

1. Is there a specific number of authority websites I should be investing in when it comes to buying solo ads? Or it doesn't really matter?

>> Please take note that solo ads are not related to getting ranked on search engines.

So for your question above, high PR sites are not connected at all when it comes to purchasing solo ads.

Solo ads are paid ads used to increase your list. If you want to get traffic on search engines without doing SEO, you do paid ads campaign like Google Ads for example.

2. If I want to rank in let's say 2 months, how much money I should be investing on solo ads in order to achieve good results?

>> I will assume that the 'solo ads' here are meant to be paid ads. The budget varies on the keywords you will be using. But it would help if you will read more about investing in paid ads campaign to understand how paid ads work and how much you will spend on an ad.

3. Is it a good idea to buy solo ads just for promoting a product? Is it okay or regarded as a 'spam ad' by the website owners who are renting out their ad space?

>> This part is confusing. I am guessing that you are a bit confused on what paid ads are, what solo ads are, etc.

Like I mentioned, solo ads are different from paid ads that you do to rank on search engines for a given result.

I would suggest you read more about solo ads and paid ads first.

Regards,
Mary

This thread and the responses in it are a perfect example of why the SEO forum here has become useless.

This depend on the KWs competition, you can get a website to rank for a low competition KW in less than 2 months OR it can take a year or more for highly competitive KWs. All of this depends on several factors such as the authority of your websites, quality of links, social signals, mobile friendliness etc.

It is quite difficult to predict without having actually seen the site, the keywords and other such things.
Then again, as your site is a product selling site, chances are that the sites of the manufacturers will have preference over a site that is 3rd party. Suppose, you are selling product A (not manufactured by you), then when you type in the keywords the site of the manufacturer, say X, will be shown ahead of your site.
On a wild guess it would take about 1-8 months to be on the first page of SERPs.

According to me 2 to 3 months we can attain ranking on this kind of keywords.

As per the latest Google updates the ideal time it takes to rank the website is 6 months.

If your site is old and have done lots of work in the market then it doesn't need time to get huge ranking in Google. But if you are new to the online industry then it needs some time to get instant ranking in Google. By doing quality SEO work your business can get instant visibility of your targeted audiences with the high quality keywords which you are using as your niche.

it depend on competitiveness of the keyword, so expert says 2 or 3 month

If you're starting afresh, anytime between 2 months to a few years depending on various factors like competition, keyword length, word type, etc. The lowest it has taken me for a 3 word keyword with high competition was 3 months.
