2 months...

And I guess an interesting note is that this SEOContest2008 was a 2 month contest and Pogung only needed 1 month and 3 days to get the 4th place position. Impressive.

Although I voted 3 months. 2 months is to hectic especially if you are currently working.

2 months, i lost interest after 1 month - i work a 80 hour week & can't stay focussed more than this - the guys who are doing nothing but seo - can probably afford to spend more time!

I think it gets too boring - building backlinks etc etc & looking at the boring computer screen for ages! 2 months felt like an eternity!

3 months is fine for a nice development. More would be too painful for our families.

I think 3 months is sensible as well.
