It took me less than (2) weeks to get the keywords "busy entrepreneur" (with quotes and without quotes) as the #1 listing on Google.com and MSN.com. Yahoo always takes more work to get a #1 position. It's easy to get a #1 position in search engines if the page ranking is low for your keywords and if your domain name includes your keywords.

Sometimes it takes more work and you have to wait a lot longer. My other website, LiteracyNews.com, (keywords: "literacy news" and literacy news) jumped to # 1 on MSN.com within a couple of weeks; about 4-5 weeks to get to # 1 on Yahoo.com; and about four months to get to #1 on Google.com.

My other website, BookCatcher.com (book catcher), of course has #1 position in search engines because no one uses the keywords "book catcher." Instead I focused on the keywords "book publicity" and "free book publicity" and this website gets listed within the top 10-15 position. A #1 position is more difficult to obtain because of the higher page ranking and lots more competition.
