There is not such thing as sandbox any more. In the past, a search engine used to 'penalize' a site for it being new. This kind of 'descrimination' against new sites was the norm and only the older more established sites got the high recognition from google and others. It has been a while now since google realized this was hurting its searches and has introduced new tweaks to its ranking algo to counteract this 'descrimination'. Now, new sites actually get kind of a boost once they are first indexed. After an initial test, google sees if that boost is well deserved or not. If, according to search patterns by searchers, google finds that indeed the site deserves good ranking, it preserves the ranking and may even increase it with time. If however the site turned out to be a failure as determined by search patterns, then google dumps it low in its search results after having given it its initial chance. ---------------------------- Dacia <a href="http://www.widecircles.com" rel="nofollow">SEO</a> Still people are talking about the ’sandbox’ till today!

But, now with changes in google policies and terms.. google sanbox has become very minimal.. and it exists to a very less extent now well google sandbox used to exist earlier for sure… new websites usually used to get into the sand box and it could take anywhere between 4 months to 1 year to get a website back from sandbox.

If I'm targeting "long tail" keywords and my domain name contains "less than smoking" keywords - then I can "skirt" the sandbox effect. However, when I use smoking hot keywords - well, I had one site site for 8 MONTHS in the sandbox. Fortunately, it was a blog so I could continue to build links, etc while Google ignored it.

But if you haven't done anything to piss off G they are back in search results again. Can't think of any reason but has happened to few of my sites.

I have never been involved with buying links. i just usually post comments on other blogs and leave a URL in forums once in awhile. I am working on writing viral content right now. I want to write something someday that just spreads like wildfire all over the net. Interesting concept.

I have always ranked on Google when I deserve to. The higher the keyword competition you try to rank for, the harder it is to rank. When you get inbound links to your site or a specific page on your site, you will rank higher. I have started many new sites and have never had the "sandbox" issue that always seems to be talked about. I actually believe that the Google Sandbox is a myth.
