Why SEO/ Search Engine Optimization take time?

Search Engines are one of the major sources of information where Internet users find answers to their questions. When students have assignments or researches that need to be done, they usually use the Internet to search. If someone has a question about certain things, he usually searches on the Internet and types his queries on the search engines.

When a user queries a search engine, he usually looks on the top search results page. He wouldn’t waste his time searching on the deeper pages. This is where a good site with high quality content and high search listings gets more advantage than other sites. A site with high search engine listings can get more traffic because as the site becomes more visible and more popular, the more visitors click on the link. Another factor is that if the site has high quality content, the more returning visits it gets and the more reliable the site is.

Search Engine Optimization is a technique of improving your website in search engine listings. Basically, optimizing your site can effectively increase your website traffic and increase your sales. But search engine optimization takes time and effort and there are lots of considerations to make and careful planning is needed in optimizing a site.

A good search engine ranking requires a lot of time and effort. There are lots of factors to consider like the site age, search engine updates, like: page rank updates, algorithm updates, back link and search engine updates. You also have to consider the keyword research, which is the most important factor in search engine optimization. Without keywords for search engines to index, there would be nothing to find in the search engine results page. Keywords are basically the function of search engines, so you must target the most appropriate keyword for your site.

Another factor is the link building process. You have to submit the site to directories and search engines. You must choose the most related category for your site, to target the visitors you want. If you want to exchange link to other sites, you have to email them and send a request telling that you want to exchange link with their sites. You have to wait for their reply, of course for confirmation. Some webmasters would reply a day or two after the request some reply a week after or longer than 1 week and some wouldn’t give their response at all. You have to be patient. There are lots of factors why search engine takes time and effort, what I have here is just a sneak peak.
