Two weeks ago, I made quite a few web page changes.
These changes will certainly be reflected by GWT.

The question is, when?

What is YOUR experience, when checking GWT for changes?
Months? Just trying to get a feel for this.

Thanks for any replies.

I guess it depends on what kind of changes. When I took an entire site to different URLS and dropped the www, it took around a month to see significant changes, and four months later I'm *still* seeing changes (though mostly it's done now). When I just dropped the www on another site (with around 1000 URLs) it took around a week and a half.

Thanks netmeg.

So, in round numbers, 2 weeks to 4 months.
In other words, I should stop holding my breath. OK.
