After redisigning a site that was 250+ for most keywords, it took about 20 days before we started to see any improvement. Now, 6 weeks after re-launch the site is first page for most product names and their manufacturer's on the site... and there's about 2700+ products.
Why? I cannot answer that without going completely numinous. I think
SEO is akin to Vodou, and I make sure to provide an offering of Energy Drink and Smokes to Papa Legba.

In Haiti, he is the great elocution, the voice of God, as it were. Legba facilitates communication, speech and understanding. In Yoruba, Ellegua is mostly associated with Papa Legba since both share the role of being the god of the crossroads, yet Legba also shares similarities to Orunmila, the orisha of prophesy who taught mankind how to use the mighty oracle Ifá. |
Makes sense that he can help with web-portals and communications...
