Hi guys, What is sandbox? does it only apply for NEW domains? if i have a domain in which i've registered eons ago like half a year, and i were to build massive links within a short period of time.. thousands a day.. will i still get sandbox-ed? what would be the acceptable link building speed? 50/week? as a beginner in seo & web development and i'm trying to come up with a online forum, what's the best way for a fresh new site to rank well?
My first question is how do you plan to "build massive links within a short period of time.. thousands a day.. "? I can tell you already it's not a good idea. You want to get links that look natural, and you want to get these links on a regular basis. You need to keep getting links over time, and if you only get an enormous amount of links at the start and nothing or a lot less links afterwards, your site will soon disappear. It depends, can you keep up with this on the long time? How will you achieve this? Try and get quality links, even 5 quality links a week is better than 500 crappy links a week. Offer valuable information... Also, optimise your forum with proper labels, structure and URLS. Now if you do get quality links from sites that are crawled on a regular basis, there is no reason why your forum shouldn't start appearing in search results...
sandbox is the situation when google penalised the website for few months because of small websites nad thy dont contain relevant and more content on them so thy be sandbox by google.
