Finally breaking onto the first page!!

After several months of hard work, I've managed to see myself on the first page of the SERPS:

keyphrase: photography forums
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...ms&btnG=Search I'm seeing #9 right now! Whoohoo!

Congratulations! How long did it take to get out of the "sandbox?" First page and its a competitive KW, 3,000,000++ pages returned.

It looks to have lasted about 5ish months for me... the decend from 100+ to top page started about 3 weeks ago... the site went live early April, and that's when I started getting links (though the most powerful links were added about 2 months ago)...
I'm on the 3rd page (and climbing) for the more competitive term photography forum which has about 6m+ results - hopefully I will continue my climb to the first page.

Good information, thank you! I know most people had been saying about three months (sandbox) I think it is a little longer now. One of my sites I've been targeting for a little over three and a half months now and is finally starting to move up.

Congratulations again!

Tim - your site is showing at #17 for 'photography forums' from the UK. Not sure why that is.

Well done anyway. Your site seems to be climbing

You may want to switch the 'photography forum' part of your title with your URL. This may just give you a little boost in the SERPs.

Bassman did you use any type of software to mine the links? or was it an arduous manual task or was it just an overall arduous manual task in general!!!!

You've certainly worked hard for it and earned it.

Thanks, all... now if I can get photography forum on the first page, I'll be a happy man. It was all done manually, sig links, link exchange requests, link swaps, etc...
