Hi Kashif,

In order for your websie to even appear on the search engine result page, your website must be crawled and indexed by the search engine.  Furthermore, in order for search engines to crawl your site, you will need contents and pages for them to crawl.  Usually when you have a site up, sooner or later it will be crawl.

\However, to fasten the speed for Google to crawl your site, you can request them to crawl by submitting your URL to Google.

Once you are indexed, you should optimize your website with on-page SEO (such as page title, URL, create contents, anchor text, h1 header) and earn back links from authority site.  If your site is well optimized, your website will then appear on search engine when someone search for keywords you are targeting.  Furthermore, you should also optimize meta description to attract searchers to click on your webiste on the search result page thus you get traffic from search engine.

In conclusion, there is no set time.  Optimize your website for SEO and you will get traffic soon.

Hope this helps

Hi'

Site is already indexed and on page optimization is done.

Site is regularly being updated and a little social media promotion is going on.

But in approx 2 weeks there is no traffic from search engines . There are approx 180 unique articles and 500 images on the site.

Should i wait more or need to do something on the site.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi,

It is good to know that your site is indexed and you did on page optimization and have a good amount of unique articles.  However, did you conduct keyword research on what other people are searching for?

You may have a lot of articles but if you don't know what your audience is searching for then you couldnt have included keywords in your articles and on page seo.

Make sure to include keywords (since you just started, target easy long tail keywords) in your article and on-page seo.  Try to build some backlinks and that will definitely help.
