Hi there,

can anybody tell me how long it takes from the time you submit your URL to google for it to appear in searches?

That depends on how well you've optimized your site - it could start appearing for some longer keyword phrases almost immediately - and it may never appear for anything if you haven't done your homework.

Google is usually the last search engine to move you up in it's searches for major phrases - but not always and you have the power to help it - it's all about how well you optimize the site on and off.

can you take a look at my site and let me know what you think and any adjustments i should make. im not sure exactly how to optimize it that well for google.

Also when i search for the full URL in google nothing appears. Will this take time or should it be listed already, or if i had optimized it would it appear?

Before I give you a long list of things that need doing, I'm going to suggest you read a free ebook I've done on search engine optimization for beginners. You need to do some homework - change page titles, descriptions - headlines on the pages, etc - after you research and find the keywords people will use to find you.

You need to have your site with links back to it - for se's to find the site to index it. If this is your first site with Voda - after it's ready for the se's - you can put in a support ticket for them to submit the site to the se's.

After you read this - feel free to ask questions as necessary to implement.
