Asking “How long to rank on Google’s first page” right after launching a website is like expecting to harvest apples the day after planting a tree – pure wishful thinking! But we’ve cracked the code: Last year, we took a German industrial bearings website from zero to Top 10 rankings for 8 core keywords in 14 months.
Phase 1: Website Infrastructure (1-3 months)
Build a Google-friendly foundation. A camping tents client using Wix initially suffered 7-second load times. After migrating to dedicated servers + AMP optimization (2 months technical overhaul), their search visibility doubled.
Phase 2: Content Matrix (3-6 months)
Forget AI-generated fluff. Enterprise SEO requires a content pyramid:
- 200 long-tail Q&A articles (e.g., “How to clean camping tent”)
- 50 product comparison guides
- 5 industry whitepapers
Our Norwegian fishing gear client captured 23% of “fishing equipment” long-tail traffic in 6 months using this model.
Phase 3: Backlink Blitz (6-18 months)
Our Shenzhen drone manufacturer client invested 470,000 RMB in backlinks alone. 11 grueling months moved their ranking from position 89 to 7 for core keywords.
Remember: Enterprise SEO is a capital-intensive marathon. Not ready to invest 500,000+ RMB annually? Better focus on paid ads instead.
