So i started a site a week and a half ago have been updating every other day and doing promotion through a couple of senuke blasts, manual link building, and youtube. so like the title states how long before i start to see if my efforts worked i am already indexed to. any help would be appreciated searched and didnt see any threads with info about this.
 
Try to reach out People of your Niche as it works the Best :).You can use Youtube of course, Twitter and most Importantly Forum members of your Niche :D

Hope that Helps.

I see a lot of posts and get a lot of emails about this.

My point of view on traffic is this:

Getting indexed in Google doesn't guarantee you visitors. Posting videos, Tweets, Social Bookmarks,etc doesn't guarantee you visitors.

I never setup a site and promote it with the hope that visitors will come. I believe it is my personal responsibility as a marketer to make the visitors come to my site and keep coming back. Otherwise, it's just a waste of time to setup in the first place.

Some helpful tips for getting traffic:

1. Have a site with valuable content of good quality. Make sure the information is really useful to your niche.

2. Have scheduled updates. If your content is solid, this will make your viewers look forward to your updates and many will come back more often since they know you are updating. This works really well for me. Works 100x better if you are building email lists.

3. When you promote your site via video, twitter, bookmarking, articles, whatever...make sure that you draw the viewer in. Make sure to give something appealing to the reader. Give them only enough that they they will be dying to know the rest(which is on your site of course).

4. Don't be a "machine" when you promote
 
@Yukinari thank you very much for the detailed response some good points in their. so your saying that if you got the content the rest should follow suit?

I agree with Yukinari.

Good quality content and SEO would go a long way.

If you put in the work it will come.

Just don't get into the trap of thinking that everything will go 100% correct from day 1.

Every niche is different so don't forget testing and tracking is a big part.

The best site I had traffic wise was a dead loss for about three months, but eventually I did start seeing visitors- I reckon it took about 6 months to really start seeing decent traffic.

However if it is viral content it can take of pretty quickly...a good example is the
Code:
www.peopleofwalmart.com
site.
 
Give it 2 - 3 weeks and then start checking the ranks for the keyword you're targeting. If fail = yes, then SENuke again = yes. How much nuking you'll have to do depends on the niche.

If you want to see fast results (a week or two), aim for the keys Nuke says are "easy" or "extremely easy." These keyphrases usually won't bring in much traffic, but if you aim at the right words, the traffic you do get will be a lot more ready to buy than that which comes from the average general phrase.

All the "content" you need is a good sales pitch. If the visitors want to know anything else, they'll just have to buy whatever you're sellin' and find out for themselves, now won't they! And once they buy, who cares if they come back. It's not like they're likely to buy another of the exact same thing you just sold them (at least this is true for most durable-goods sales) even if they love your site.

Of course, if you have some weird reason for wanting them to come back and suck your bandwidth without buying stuff, there's a white hat subforum for that...
 
Thanks all so much for the replys they have been a huge help and a great point in the right direction. very much appreciated again!
 
In the first place you should be aware that your keyword is search rich by users to drive traffic. Keep in mind it is through pain and time you spent you gain something. Give some time coz i think you have just started you site. My advice


  1. Content is king
  2. Place social bookmarking feature in your post in appropriate places (Both at the top and bottom).
  3. Use twitter with some automation tool like hummingbird, twitadder and many more available.
  4. yeah use youtube and definitely you should try this method of Harro
    Code:

  5. IM and email marketing.
  6. Place images with alt attribute (Steal top ranking competitor bandwidth)
Dont rush and make damages to your new site. Give some time and build some good backlinks and try for top search engine ranking. Doing this you're about to drive traffic both from the linking site and Google.
