How Long Does It Take For Search Engines To Update Site Information?

I have recently changed the home (index) page of my web site and am having some trouble locating the site using search engines such as Google. After typing in all the keywords it came up with some information which clearly comes from my updated home page but it also included such phrases as 'this site is still under construction' which relates to the old index page. Also the heading shown for the site simply says 'template' which I do not understand. I obviously want the title of the site when displayed on the net to be the same or nearly the same as my actual site name. HELP!How Long Does It Take For Search Engines To Update Site Information?there is no set time, all major search engines are constantly combing the net for updated sites, it can take from hours to days. Best practice is to use search tags that are unique to you (if possible) try not to put your tags within frames in the main page (search engines like plain html on the main page) and if you are desperate for listings consider paying fro them, for a business this could be worthwhile (but remember only certain key words can be listed). Hope this helps :)

It should only take approx 2-3hr's.

It depends how busy the web is, if it isn't busy then it could take as little as 15 mins. But I'd allow for traffic, emails, p2p usage, gamers,. etc.
