Giving SEO Results Time To Appear
Practice Patience To Avoid Going Too Far

Changes and updates take time in search engine land, in the back of your mind you know it and can see it in front of your eyes. It's easier to work on another site all together, just to keep your attention away from checking statitics constantly. If you have had that experience, then you understand the temptation to make constant changes.
For one, a site that constantly changes might not even show up for a particular keyphrase or keyword until it's SOLID!, trusted to be consistant that is. Try to give a website or page a couple weeks just to know, check your rankings, by hand if possible to see if there are changes, even moving up two pages from 89 to 68 is and improvement, but doon't gfool with anything until the site stops moving up. A common mistake made is to see a site moving up, then doing more SEO, only to halt progress of an increase in rankings. My experience with Yahoo has been like that, sites that got put on the way back burner for over a year finally start kicking up top 10 results for everything. So that site you have that is frustrating you today may be a cushion later down the road, but I'm not suggesting to ignore sites, but sometimes you can get overloaded and other oportunities for traffic have to be priority, especially if they put gas in the car and pay bills.
