In SEO, time taken to rank the keywords varies as per the average monthly searches and competition of the keywords. Higher the competition, longer will be the time taken to rank them.

Ideally keywords should be chosen with high search volume and with lower competition.

It will depend upon many factors like

- What types of keyword you are using?
1. Short Tail keyword
2. Long Tail keyword
- What is the volume of the keyword?
1. Low
2. Medium
3. High
- What is monthly traffic on a particular keyword?

At last, I would like to tell you that SEO takes some time to rank a keyword to the 1st page. If you have complete onPage then you can rank your keyword according to the competition. It will take 2-3 months so you must choose a medium level volume keyword with high monthly traffic. If keyword has high volume then it can take 6-8 months to get ranked on the 1st page.

I wont give a sarcastic reply
It all depends - how many competing webpages are already ranking for that keyword phrase ?
How well have those pages been optimised ?
How many links do the top 10 sites have ?

Once you at least know this - you will have a good idea of how difficult it will be - NB and also if it's worth it. There is no point in trying to rank a keyword phrase if it has little or no searches per month.

The next question will now be - where do I get this keyword data ?

Basically you either buy some software that does it for you - or you pay someone to provide you the data. Eitherway - you'll find you have to pay for that sort of information.

He didnt say what the keyword phrase was - so no one knows how long it will take, he asked "how long to take rank this keywords on first page of google"

So seeing as everyone is doing it - I estimate about 4 hours, 23 minutes and 36 seconds :)

    Your profile says you are an SEO company. Why are you asking the question here?

    In any case, it's a daft keyword. Nobody will be using just those two words in a search

    According to multiple sources, the average time for websites to rank on Google through optimization (SEO) techniques is about three to six months. That's right – jumping to the front of Google's results usually takes between 90-180 days, depending on the competitiveness of your industry and the popularity of your keywords

    What a load of rubbish. I’ve had blog posts ranked within a couple of hours. Your multiple sources are wrong.

    So the stories about the riots in India that a currently ranking first on google happened 3 months ago? Not yesterday?

    The slogans what Labour used to try and win the election, that rank number 1 were published 6 months ago before the election was called?

    Your sources are idiots.

    Here's a new more accurate statement for you.

    The average time for websites to rank on Google through optimization (SEO) techniques is about forever. That's right – jumping to the front of Google's results never happens for most websites, depending on the competitiveness of your industry and the popularity of your keywords

    Hello,
    I agree with your points. But I am talking about a Keyword and you are talking about Blog.
    Ranking a Blog and a Keyword both are different things.
    No they aren’t. You are still wrong

    it depends mainly on your skills and resources. nothing else so much, because if you have enough skill and resource, you can scale up to handle any level of competitivity efficiently, but if you severely lack skill and resource, you could fall short at the easiest tasks.

    i assume you're trying to rank in google india, which is where 90% of the traffic occurs for Tanjore Painting.

    you're going up against some strong ecommerce sites, including amazon, plus art galleries, and wikipedia. if you're focusing on negligible things like meta descriptions and h1 tags, you don't have your priorities right so i'd expect you won't get there for at least a few years if ever.

    title tags and link schemes are far more effective but you need to be very careful how you do them so that they're really effective yet don't get you penalised. if i were to train you up for an hour a day, and you had a budget of a few thousand pounds or dollars per month, and had a strong work ethic and lots of time for this project, i'd expect you'd be able to reach page 1 within about 1 or 2 years.

    there are some high performing low-power sites though where their name relates closely to the search term and the site has been well designed (for example ttagallery.in) so there is a chance you could get there in 1-2 months with a good strategy like naming your organisation after this term. that's still assuming i've been training you and you have a budget of a few thousand pounds or dollars per month though, or alternatively a few hundred per month plus access to an expert content producer and an expert link schemer and an expert visual web designer and a decent programmer in your team. i would have to do more research to give you a better indication of the likelihood of this working though - this is just my first glance impression.

    Just to throw my hat in to this hilarious thread.

    The oldies here will remember me as a maiden name, after 15 years we got married in 2017 and we enjoyed a fabulous Airbnb rooftop apartment in Rome for a few days on honeymoon.

    New husband said to me "Rome is beautiful, we could sell the house and move here. You can work anywhere in the world"

    I looked at him, sipped more wine and said "Mmm-mm sure"

    He wouldn't let it lie, he said "Well, you'd have to re-SEO your website from UK keywords to SEO Rome wouldn't you?" well, after 15 years of him not being able to spell Google right up to finally getting a grasp on SEO there was little more than I could do to agree (in principle).

    He said it was a test.

    We had spend 4 long hours on a walking tour around Rome the previous day, and I was that annoying tourist on her iphone making notes. Lots of notes. There's no way I'd remember a fifth of the information that was imparted that day, to be honest I planned on publishing it on my blog anyway as a distraction to the usual "Google new update blah blah blah PBN bad, skyscraper content good" etc

    After we had been back home for a couple of weeks I spent 1.5 hours turning all my notes into a blog post. I cross referenced stuff that was sketchy on the internet to get my facts straight in case anyone y'know bothered to read it .. got all my SEO ROME blah blah at the top of the article and did the usual:
    • URL beginning with SEO ROME
    • Title tag starting with SEO ROME
    • H1 header beginning with (you guess it) SEO ROME
    • Threw in "Search Engine Optmisation" for semantic search
    • Introductory paragraph about 150 words ROME blah ITALY blah rah
    • Alt tag on image .. WHITE WEDDING DRESS just kidding SEO 'ROME'
    • Submitted the URL for inspection
    • Google page 1, position 1 in google.co.uk and google.co.it in 5 minutes
    • From 2017 to 2020, no further work done, still at the top of Google in 2 countries today
    What was the question about ranking again? How long?

    Well, 5 minutes to never is my definitive answer

    Thank you for coming to my TED Talk

    P.S. I've never had an enquiry for SEO ROME lol

    Ranking on keywords or keyphrases depend on the amount of competition there is and the amount of work you put into creating the content on the page. If you run some basic seo tools you will find lots of pointers on your page first. Once you are happy have a look at the competition and see how they have ranked higher.
    On page stuff is only half the battle, external links to the page using the keyword is the next step and link it back to your site. It's not easy. SEMRush is good to use.

    According my experience , the average time is 3 to 6 months and it depends on the competitiveness of your industry, keyword search volume, competition and your SEO performance .
    After 6-7 months and provided that you are working in the right direction you can start getting more serious traffic from Google as well as other search engines.
    An old trusted website is more likely to rank higher in SERPs than a newer website but this does not mean that it cannot achieve good rankings. It simply means that it might take some time.

    According to multiple sources and articles, the average time for any websites to rank on Google through Search Engine optimization techniques is approximately three to six months.

    To jump onto the front page of Google’s search results usually takes between 90-180 days, depending on the competitiveness of your industry and the popularity of your keywords.

    From my experience, it takes constant efforts to rank on top positions of Google depending on your business competition. You need to work taking care of the quality of the activity you perform.

    I must be doing it wrong then. I managed it in less than a week.

    I didn't. I launched the site years ago and haven't done much to it since then. Still ranks on page one for a whole range of keywords.

    Answer to your question is It Depends
    It depends on many factors like below
    Website strength, monthly traffic, competition, skills, etc.
    But one thing is for sure if you make intentional efforts to improve your search ranking you will definitely get good results. It could be as little as one or two days or it may take 6 to 8 months or maybe more.
