Stick to web design and hire a professional SEO. I would barter up. Maybe a partnership to help you with SEO and you send some clients his way.

If you're asking such questions then SEO is not for you.

Sorry to sound rude, but that term can take months if not years to rank for, even if you know what you're doing. Trust me.

if you know about the on page and off page activities and how to do work on it then you can improve your website ranking and if don't then hire a company which provide seo services.It takes 2 or 3 months for rank your site on top page of google.

It takes better links and more/as relevant content then the sites you are seeking to beat...
