3,5 Weeks - "how long does it take... to see SERP IMprovements?"

Well, somehow it was reluctant to me, to share this, but.. As I am finished today for my projects, why not give s.th. back to the community.

ever thought "how long does it take... to see SERP IMprovements?"

well, 3,5 weeks.

however, those 3,5 weeks only apply to "relevant, strong links", eg. non-spun-unique-blogposts on non spammed domains. "crap links 5$ fiver links", can be somwhere from a few days to months, till you see "sth or nothing".
back to case.

I have done other extensive tests, on multiple niches, pages, domains and whatnot. PBN posts from sellers here, my own blogs, and stuff...

so, that number is extremely accurate.

it is 3,5 weeks.
3 to 4 weeks, it took on average till # improvement came.
usually, approx 48 hours, after a new strong post was let lose, rankings started dacing. and approx 3-4 weeks, they normalized.
some times, rankings stayed the same for 3 weeks, then suddendly on week 3,5 they improved..
the following weeks later, link juice seems to flatten out, sometimes improve, but in most cases, it just daced around+-3 spots.

this is a perfect example of countless (!) timeframes I tracked the last 6 months over countless pages, projects, PBN suppliers and other strong blogposts.

today, I wont go into any further details, cause, I am to lazy, tired, and kind of IM overdose fixing anchortags :/.

just remember, 3,5 weeks. for IMprovements.
yeah, I know. there are "faster" improvements. I know that, but I am talking on average here.

ok, I give you another one. total different niche, this time PBN posts:

https://gyazo.com/9f5179c1fbcfc688cc16f0d8f13ec5b8

"exactly 3,5" weeks, averaging out the approx 48h till the crawlers get the PBN post..

DONE.

update:
if the link has been "valued", eg. 3,5 weeks are past. and so see # improvements, change of anchor are nearly instant (eg from URL>anchor). that's like 72h at most, after the articles are indexed.
I know, it does not add up in this whole 3,5 things, but. that is the way it is.

I have seen instant improvement on strong links (not for own site but others)

Like I stated, I counted averages here.
I also had cases where #1 improvements where withing 72 hours.

How many different examples have you used to calculate your average? That would make a huge difference to how useful this is.

I totally agree with this.

Same here for stabilizing any work. Whether posting new articles, interlinking them or building backlinks

I see effects in short time but the total effect takes 3 - 4 weeks

Time became the most important factor in ranking or shall I say "Patience"

50-100? I am to lazy atm, to check that out.

OP is a case study guy, good job, and share more later

If you are buying links from public networks with lots of OBL it's going to dance like that.
You need to test your own private network and see the results.
Here is the result of one link.

The keyword I hit:



Variation of the keyword:



No other links to the url. Just one pbn.
PBN Metrics: 38 Pa/26 DA/18 TF/17 CF/ 26 RDs : Kind of same niche*

post # in 4 weeks.
dont do any new link building for 4 weeks.
and I bet YOU cant stop building links.

perhaps, I did not stated that...

but in ALL the cases I ran, I built links, THEN wated 4 weeks. NOTHING else was done in that case.

so thats contrary to 99,9% of those dudes buying link package after package, spending a gazillion of $$ and in the end, dont know it the "fiver link pyramid", or the "insertfancyheroname-package" worked the wonders...

I, atm, still do it. it's slow, but I got so many "test" sites and money sites from my past, I can do it
one strong link per months. or some "link package", and then wait.

any how, I am kind of done here. I dont have the time to compare dick size, It was a share for the startes here to teach them patience.

I am off.

Thankx darulez for sharing this useful stuff.Share more case studies.
