Everyone has heard of the Google sandbox, and some debate if it is real or not. I personally think is does, and have been effected by it first hand.
A while back, I posted about a site of mine that was sandboxed. It happened using Courtney Tuttle’s Keyword Sniping Theme.
Well Courtney wrote a post in reply to the concerns of people experiencing the Google sandbox when they target keywords. He gives great advice to beginners at SEO and keyword snipping. It is also a great read for those with a new site.
Check out Court’s post: What Do You Do If Your Site Gets Sandboxed?
I’ve noticed that I’ve had partial success with my site, even though it was sandboxed.
I’ve been continuing with my SEO and Internet Marketing strategy. I’ve been updating it at least once a week with keyword targeted posts. I research to find low competition long tail keywords that are related to my primary keyword. I then target the post at that long tail keyword. Even with the sandbox, I still rank well for the low competition keywords. My site is currently generating 200 visits a day from Google. My traffic should pick up significantly once my site gets out of the sandbox.
