how long till i see results?

hi all, i'm in the middle of some seo work on my site which is 3 weeks olds. I've targetted 2 keywords with articles submitted to 20 sites, 2 youtube videos submitted to 10 sites, all of these to 10 social bookmark sites. I've also ordered 100 backlinks with 15 edu links as well. I've signed up for dripable trial and this is feeding 2 of my articles.

How long can i expect to wait before i see the full results of these actions?

my backlinks are not showing up in yahoo site explorer yet, only a couple ie bukmark and vimeo and my articles on ezine

Too hard to tell you the time frame. I suggest keep building backlinks. The more relevant backlinks your site has the better. Work on a site in weeks to months time frame.

Yahoo! Site Explorer, IMHO, is a bad tool to use to track backlinks. Use IBP or other software.

I would say 2 months. Why? because there is a time lag from the time you create the backlinks to the time when the Google crawler comes by and indexes them. You may see results sooner but that is my experience. Just because you create the link today doesn't mean Google is picking it up today and you won't see movement in your rankings until all the backlinks start getting picked up. Rule of thumb. Just keep at it and stay consistent with your backlink efforts. That is you best bet. I wouldn't bother checking rankings for about a month or you'll drive yourself crazy and get discouraged in the meantime.

Keep building backlinks, pray and be patient!

Your rankings will come with time.
