Today, Google is the search engine. It is not only the most popular, taking a whopping 6o+ % of the search market, it’s nearest competitor Yahoo!, only takes about 19% of the search market. This means that if you do not rank on Google you do not rank!
Google works faster than the other search engines from our experience in every way. New pages can show up on Google in a few hours, but take weeks to show up on MSN and Yahoo. It is important to rank well in all search engines but ranking well in Google will bring the best results.
Some Stats
In April 2008 according to Comscore, Google extend their share of core searches to 61.6 percent, up from 59.8 percent the previous month. Yahoo! came in at a slow second with 20.4 percent, followed by Microsoft Sites (MSN) (9.1 percent), AOL LLC (4.6 percent), and Ask Network (4.3 percent). ASK is actually on the rise since 2008 because of its specialised searches, so it is becoming worth ranking in.

Google SEO time frame
There are many complex factors involved with ranking well in Google. Even though it is possible to rank a brand new page (not site) on the first page of Google within a few hours, the conditions to make this happen must be in place, such as having a high ranking site (Google page rank higher than 5) and have a well established mature site that is a number of years old. The more established your site is then the easier in some ways it is to rank but it does depend on another major consideration – keyword competition.
The time to taken achieve top rankings is dependent on the competitiveness of your target keyword-phrases. Less competitive long-tail key phrases can realise a page one position on Google within a few weeks while highly competitive terms may take six months or more. For example, the keyword phrase “How do I rank high on Google in Singapore” submitted in quotes to Google.com.sg returns no competition at all. If you remove the quotes then over 5300 results are returned. If you do the same search without the quotes on Google.com then you are competing with a whopping 127,000 other webpages.
The competition for keywords is usually in direct correlation to their financial worth. Gaining top positions in Google for your most valuable terms will generate sales and profit for your business at the expense of your competition! Rest assured that your competition, if ranking well in Google, will be watching out to make sure they are not losing ground. Once you rank for a keyword then you will need to maintain that position with ongoing nominal monthly activities such as content posting and bookmarking which is done as part of the monthly maintenance plan we offer.
Get the most out of your website
If you are not squeezing your website investment to get the most ROI for dollars and time spent then you are missing out in business. These days many people will look to Google first to find something. The days of people using Yellow Pages are gone. The last time I used a copy of the Yellow Pages it was to prop my monitor up! If you are not online and not ranking for specialised keywords you are not being found these days. In the Yellow Pages days it would cost thousands a year to place a good advert in the book yet today the advertising is free but you often need to pay a little for the placement. it is well worth the investment.
