Answer 2

How long a link building campaign takes to yield results depends on the techniques used to add the backlinks. A manual link building campaign usually takes one to three months to take effect because the link builder first needs to negotiate with each site. After the backlink is added, it can take a month or two for the added links to affect your search engine ranking.

However, as time goes on, backlinking campaigns can increase traffic to your site and cause it to be viewed as more of an authority in your niche. Eventually, this can have a significant positive impact on your search engine ranking.

Automatic link building campaigns have the potential to take effect more quickly, but this is negated by the fact that many techniques to quickly add backlinks will violate Google’s terms of service and could lead to your site being punished or even delisted from search engines.
