@WebDesignConquerorJan 08.2020 — #Judging by my experience, it depends on the keyword difficulty. The aspects which you will have to take care of are in direct proportion with your competitor domain authority and backlinks profile.
To conclude, it's still possible to rank #1 in 5 hours - if the competition is low, otherwise, it costs an effort to overtake the competitors.
SEO is becoming harder and harder. As time goes on, it takes longer to rank and you have to spend more money to get the results you want. But the reality is, you can't wait forever to get results. And you have no choice but to leverage SEO as a tactic because everyone else is doing it.
If you researched well and work well according to the Google algorithms then, there will not be anything harder.
But you have to be a hard worker and tricky person in SEO.
I also run a website and ranked my keywords top of the Google search
One of my page keywords are still in progress like "guest posting services" against this page [url=http://globexoutreach.com/guest-posting-service/]globexoutreach.com/guest-posting-service/[/url]

@cmswebsiteservicessJun 18.2020 — #Google SEO is not harder but on google, completion is higher. If you start an e-commerce business or IT company it's hard to rank on generic keywords so you need to use long-tail keywords and if you choose the right keywords for your services you can rank easily but always use unique content because the content is always king in SEO. The last thing follows the google guidelines and working accordingly.
