SEO efforts must be continuous. It may take you quite a while to see any measurable results, and once you do see them, you must keep on working to preserve your site's position.

So many people ignore those in their keyword quests and miss out! Blog comments are very effective and even the no-follow on high rank blogs like Shoemoney work well since Yahoo ignores the no-follow tag. @ Three Dog,

Yhe thing is to be patient. I have found since I started my efforts that after about a month some of my long tails that I know are good start ranking in google quite highly. This obviously goes along with having kept increasing links etc to the site. I am also finding that commenting on blogs is becoming a much quicker way of getting links than article marketing. A few comments on four or five sites gave me 50 links in a few days and I can see it rising by the hour as the sites get crawled. Do follow sites naturally.
