So how long is it taking you to hit page one using link pyramid/linkpushing-type methods?

Lately I am quite happy with my success in getting ranked on page one for some terms that 3 months back I thought I would never rank for.

I do mostly "white-hat" backlinking - half-decent (mostly manually-created and maintained) Web 2.0s/blogs/Youtube vids etc. in Tier 1, that I build up gradually over a month or two, blasting the Tier 1s, or more often dripping links to them, with AMR articles, sometimes spun, sometimes duplicate - doesn't seem to make a whole lot of difference. I also sometimes backlink the livelinks randomly with AMR too to get a nice webwork and help get/keep them indexed.

Anyway, I used to think there was a quick way to page one, and maybe some people still have some shortcuts, but I am finding that especially with my relatively non-spammy methods, 2-3 months is about normal to hit the top ten for a keyword (I normally pick low-medium comp stuff). And my rise up the rankings is always nice and smooth, never any dancing, and though it can seem slow initially, things accelerate after a couple of months and, wahey, there I am! After a while I can safely blast my site directly with AMR too, with no ill effect.

I find the rankings I get this way are very stable, which you would expect - slow and steady wins the race AND creates a very solid basis for long-term rankings. Is that generally others' experience? Or do you think this is waaaaay too slow and you prefer to do things quicker :)?
 
Hmm, let's start again - my question was kinda this: how long does it typically you guys round here to rank on page one with these kinds of method? Do you think my time-frame of 2-3 months (actually, sometimes more) for a low-medium competition k/w is reasonable, or is it far too slow?
 
Thanks for your post :)

I register many domains and make many, many sites.. And yes it sometimes happens you get to top10 immediately or almost immediately , without any promotion even...

Just for the content and the domain..

However , 2-3 or even 4 months seems to be the normal time. I have also tried scrapebox, xrumer and it doesnt seem to advance this at all. It has been mentioned in the forums before that xrumer and scrapebox are now almost completely useless cos Google is smart and so they can easily read any spam comments or backlinks of course and either punish the site (if its new, cos who else would promote a new domain than the owner), or just threat it like "inexistant and unimportant"... For Linkwheels I do believe they might work still but also they wont really enhance the time til you are in top10 :) Google is taking more patience lately is my impression...

Thanks for your comments - what you say sounds very realistic. I also noticed that some of the well-known services, like Matt LaClear's WSO that uses his massive blog network, have changed their strategy and now do not promise quick ranking like they might have done before, but rather a 2-4 month period seems to be more the order of the day.

Seems that a slower, steadier approach is a much better idea these days. TBH I would be glad if that were the case and things like spammy blog comment blasts became totally devalued - I know this is BHW, but c'mon, NOBODY likes spam... And it's a more level playing field this way.

do hardwork :) that's the key :)

Yeah, that's the quick way of describing it :)

Really I don't believe in shortcuts in SEO, not unless you have really found some loophole in the algo - those are pretty rare and they usually don't last long. Or else people are keeping quiet about them :)

Definitely SEO is hard work, especially if you don't really trust others to do it right and end up doing most of it yourself...
 
My new strategy which is working very well for me, after all my sites were hit from the panda update, i started creating link pushs using unique articles, i dumped Senuke and started using Rank builder (i know it's underrated but the web2 properties it creates seem to stick and gets indexed far more faster than Senuke's) , and my secret weapon is getting homepage backlinks from related sites, and now am back in the game.
 
I generally get on page 1 inside of 2 weeks but I also use massive content on my sites... 5,000 words a day with 500 per article so 10 articles a day.

I truncate all my articles and use a massive ping list as well.
 
It usually takes me around 1-2 weeks to get on page 1 using a good amount of articles/social bookmarks/profiles/web 2.0 properties.

I don't understand why people even deal with blackhat SEO tactics unless you're targeting trendy topics. This shit should be longterm and autopilot. I'd rather take 2 months to get my sites to #1 and have them stay there than have my site reach #1 in a week and then drop like a stone.
 
yeah, it usually takes right around 3 months to hit the first page the way I do things... your timeframes sound a lot like mine... I do dance a lot during the first 2 months though.

I would love to get there faster, but I havent found a good way to do that...
 
I have finished my link wheel yesterday and waiting for its result.I am spamming my 2tier links by SB.i am ready to wait 1 month for result ;)
