A big chunk of websites on the Internet are trying to fool business owners with towering high claims of guaranteed & quick SEO results; some even promise results within 48 hours. None of that is possible.

SEO campaigns demand a good amount of run time to produce results. And how much time a website may actually need before receiving any search engine traffic, depends on a number of factors that include the following:

How Quickly Can You Get Inbound Links?

Quality inbound links will rank your website higher, but never try to buy inbound links in bulk from low quality SEO websites.

SEO link packages are being offered on the Internet. But if Google suspects such activity, your website may even be penalized.

Google appreciates websites that garner organic links, and it will take some time before quality websites will recognize and that do that for you.

Takeaway: Quality backlinks cannot be created quickly. The process may take several weeks or months at a stretch.

Higher Competition Requires Greater SEO Efforts over a Longer Time Span

Chances are that your target market already has a good amount of competition.

You are not going to stay behind the competition if you are late to the party but yes, it will take a big longer for your website to catch up with them.

How Content Intensive Is Your Website? 

The larger (and better) the amount of information you can share with readers, easier it is for SEO professionals to optimize your website for target keywords. But, if your business needs very little in the name of content, you will need better links, and also create strong social media presence to make up for the loss.

Understanding Natural Language Search

The world around us is changing and so is SEO. A lot of language changes are now impacting the way content was written.  Websites must remain up-to-date natural language search, since people now type details in their search rather than plain keywords. Terminology now plays an even more important role, impacting both direct keyword search and detailed search.

SEO Is A Never Ending Process

Taking a break once you’ve achieved your SEO target is not an option. It has never been a onetime fix.  Remember that your competitors will constantly keep an eye upon all those right behind or ahead of them. They are closely studying your campaigns and improving upon theirs. You really can’t take a break from SEO. But if the results show up, why would anyone worry about having to invest in an ongoing SEO campaign, is that not so?
