How long does it take to rank on first page of Google Search results?

The short answer is six months to one year. The long answer is: it depends. Back in the early 2000s, ranking on Google was pretty easy. You just added your main keywords to the title, URL and content body and boom – you got to the top 10 in the search results within a few weeks or even days.
