Update February 18, 2009
A common question asked by folks who are not familiar with professional SEO services, is how long does it take to get new content into the Google index?
Assuming that your website is already in the index and that you have been keeping your content current and have a xml sitemap updated when you add, remove or modify content, here is one answer.
My page about outsourcing which is linked from the title of this post went online February 11. The original version of this blog post went online the same day. This blog post showed up in the Google index February 15. The web page showed as being cached on February 16 but had no rankings. The web page was ranked overnight yesterday and if you search for Does Outsourcing Help America at Google this morning you will see my page ranked # 2 out of 4,350,000 pages containing those four words.
18 - 11 = 7 days to earn a ranking
16 - 11 = 5 days to get crawled and cached (4 days in the case of the blog post)
Based on observing my own work, this is typical for a well maintained website. The record for me for getting crawled, cached and ranking so far in 2009 is a little less than 48 hours, which is luck of the draw for hitting the timing just right with the GoogleBot.
Lots of folks who contact me about improving their websites tell me others have told them MONTHS for getting changes in the index. If that's what you are being told, politely end the conversation and look elsewhere.
We will be glad to show you how or teach you how to do this yourself. If you want to do it yourself, read my new Do It Yourself SEO page.

The black and white photograph tells the story well. Greed has swamped the boat and it will take a lot of bailing to have it float once again. Both of my grandfathers built companies from scratch that made stuff - electric circuits and machinery, etc. They worked hard, did well and retired with comfort; though not rich - they shared their largesse with their employees. I grew up seeing that a world of haves and have nots is an unjust and unfair world. We have lost the focus of work, and much of the money generated today has been through manipulation, not work. It will probably take a generation to fix this - keep up the good work - voices of reason are too often not heard, thanks. Peter
