How do I get out of the Google Sandbox
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
If you have ever read anything on search engine optimization or tried it, chances are you have been told about the famed Google Sandbox. The fact is nobody at Google has ever admitted that it exists, and nobody really has proof. It is believed by some that Google has some sort of filter that prevents websites from being ranked good when they are new, to prevent spam sites.
So is it really there? I can't really say for sure. It would be a good idea, but it would prevent sites that are brand new and good from ranking for a period of time. There really is only one thing that would tell you if it exists and that is if you were so good at SEO that you could develop and optmized page both on and off site that should be number 1 and register the domain all on the same day. I don't know anybody that good.
I believe it depends on your optimization efforts, not the Google Sandbox. I had a site that was just below 100 for about 2 weeks after the domain was registered. 2 weeks later I was at position 10. I had increased my optimization efforts. Did I beat the sandbox, does it only last 2 weeks, does it exist at all? I don't know, but if it does exist it doesn't last more than 30 days if you know what you are doing.
My point is, that yes it may exist, but it is easy to get a first page ranking in about 30 days. If you are so good that you are optimizing where you should be above that, but are not then maybe there is. My point is that my site was on page 1 of Google before I was even indexed in Yahoo, so I dont believe there is a sandbox per say.
I think what people refer to as the sandbox is simply the fact that it takes a little time to outrank sites that have been indexed for some time. I mean the fact is to get a higher ranking you have to pass sites that were there before you.
