How much time it can take to rank on this competition ?

am new to SEO(6 months..). means not have experience of ranking on big competition.

I need to give time estimation of one project where i need to rank for pharma niche. as per the SERP, showing 90-80DA sites ranking on first page. how long it takes to rank-out them if my website is brand new?

I know what I need to do is. creating high quality content with good website structure and all. but i am not sure about the time to give to the backlink work. what you think how much time i need to rank on this competition if i work 8 hours a day ? (i will outsource the content writing) ..

in backlink work, I know i will need big number of high DA link that i will cover with guest postings. (not planning to use PBN).. or should i go creating a PBN and use it for DA boost?

Really it will take min 3 to 6 months with unique content + backlink

i gone through 3 result pages and i can see website with 70 to 75DA ranking on third page. so i think it will take more than 6 months to reach at that level.

I would choose another niche with less competition if you're just starting with SEO. You are entering into very high competition commercial keywords that needs huge budget and a lot of work. If you're not going to use PBN links, then what link building strategy you are going to use to compete with 80-90 DA sites in the pharmacy niche? I think it's gonna be too tough.

There can't be an exact answer for this. But from the stats you stated it looks very very difficult to me.

There is not time frame. Is all about the work you put in.

I believe there is no definite time frame for this one. It depends on the content of your blog and also your link building strategy. In regards to your niche, I think it has too many competitors it might be tough for you. I suggest you'll choose a niche which is less competitive if you want results quickly.

It will take Approximately 6 months. But you may also get this in three months if use high-quality content and guest posting.

Realistically such keywords (i haven't checked it) could take more than a year.
Now, the good approach would be to find LSI keywords originating from that main keyword and work on them first to then branch to the primary one.

There is no specific time for ranking a website, it may take 3 months or in some cases 1 year and even more.
It depends on the niche you select and the competitors.
Content and backlinks play key role in ranking your website.
