hi to all SE. I just want to know how long does an SEO optimize a website? Is it possible to rank the site in the top page of the search engine in a minimal time? example a duration of 1 month optimization?

It depends on your keyword target, if you had lots of competitors then your chances will be low.

It really depends on which keywords you are targeting, what niche you are in, and the amount of competition there is. Sometimes you can go to the first page in a couple of weeks or so, and sometimes it can take months or even years.

Absolutely right Brandon! It depends upon the keywords but the thing is that they should be right keywords. You need to continue targeting the keywords constantly until they come in better postion because some keywords take long period.

It will always depend in everything. You need to consider the competition and the keywords you are targeting. And of course, it will differ on how you optimize or work hard for your site.

Depending on the target keywords and competition, it usually takes 5-6 months.

So I feel a bit disappointed. I hired a local SEO who compromised to set in Google top 10 a total of 12 keywords in 10-12 months! Price is relatively cheap: around $125 per keyword. Was I scammed?

I've been working at it for a couple of regional sites and I am on the fist page of results for these sites after only 3 weeks. But I have been working at it for on average 8 hours a day + my regular Magager & Real Estate job! I find it kinda fun!

We have seen 1st page results in as quick as 1 month. It depends, of course, on your choice of keywords. Very competitive keywords will take longer, but realistic long-tail keywords can achieve top rankings in shorter timeframes, and they convert much better.
You should always perform enough keyword analysis to find the best long-tail keywords. Next you need to test for conversion rates. PPC testing is the quickest way to learn what keywords, phrases and page content convert the best. Knowledge and good PPC tools will save you money, so do your research before stepping into the PPC waters.

Depends on a lot of factors, especially with your approach. Patience is a must in SEO. Great things requires sacrifice remember?
