I saw noticable improvements in 3-4 weeks.

Everyone's site is different. I particularly wanted to de-emphasize the Contact Us page to reduce the number of SPAM attacks on my web form in addition to giving my product pages a bit more ranking oomph. Generally speaking, my attitude is that if people want information about me or my site, I'd prefer that they start on my main page where they can easily navigate to the appropriate internal page through prominent links - but only after I've had a chance to give them some ideas for other pages to check out on my site once they've taken care of their first chore.
