Hi BlackMagic,

do you mean your client wants to be on the frontpage of google? This will take alot of work and time (not including time learning what to do) so if you are unsure, and the client can afford it, you are better off sending it to a trusted SEO company.

There is a sandbox period (Google will not confirm or deny this fact) that means that the search giant has to make sure that you're not a spammer. So that can be up to 190 days. Now after that there isn't a big chance for you to be on the first page unless the key term is your own name or not highly contested.

site:seemenus.co.uk shows that Google has indexed 13 pages of this site so it is indexed.

What keyphrases are you trying to appear on?

stop being such an idiot......

SEO wont work if you dont have content on the page to begin with, and im not talking about the "about page"

The home page is blank... I rest my case

Get some content for your page and not just any content. Then have someone to help you out with your SEO, it's not an assurance for really fast google appearance as you say it, but it somehow will lead you in the right way and last but not the least, have patience.

Hi,

Not sure Martin was being fair calling you an idiot! Your link profile is very poor which will be one of the most important determining factors for your site but do have some content on the pages introducing the page. Review your keyword choices too using Googles keyword tool.
