Hi, I would like to know from your experiences... 1.) What was your traffic of UNIQUE VISITORS BEFORE you went into the Sandbox? 2.) What was your traffic of UNIQUE VISITORS DURING the time you where in the Sandbox? 3.) What was your traffic of UNIQUE VISITORS AFTER you got out of the Sandbox? 4.) How long have you been in the Sandbox? Some people say they where 1 month other say 6 months and other people say 12 months... What is your experience? The reason i am asking this is... does your traffic of UNIQUE Visitors go straight to ZERO after you are in the SANDBOX? Or does your traffic get lower by some percentage? For example does your traffic get lower by 50%??? Or wasnt there any traffic at all after you where in the Sandbox??? Thanks George
Usually, if you enter the Sandbox most of your organic traffic (from search engines) will reach the bottom. The long-tail KWDs will start disappearing from the SERP, you will also lose your top positions for your main KWDs in just a few hours time... the indications are quite various, but the most important is the lost of your organic traffic (SERP positions). As for the time spent in Sandbox - nobody can tell you exact periods, but one of the options to get out is to add more unique content and continue building links from quality sources.
Usualy your SE Traffic will drop to 5-10% maximum of what its been. You should just keep building links and adding content.
You mean that if for example i have 1000 UNIQUE VISITORS per day then i will drop to 50-100 UNIQUE VISITORS per day? But from where are coming this 50-100 Visitors which represent the 5-10% that you mention if i am not listed anymore in Google SERPS?
I think that soulravager was just giving an example And don't forget that even if you lose all your organic traffic,there are still 2 other sources: the direct visitors and the visitors that come from reffering sites (link exhanges, banner traffic, forum signatures, etc.). This traffic stays no matter what your SERP positions are
If your site is in the sandbox you will see a sudden decrease in the traffic coming from SE. Your site will not come up for a number of keywords you used to rank for and even might not show up if you do a domain name search. The site will remain in the sandbox for 3-4 months before it finally gets out of it or out of Google.
Yes,,if your site get sandbox. Your traffic decrease,it because your keyword in SERP decrease. But your site still in the google.
Traffic will dip alot & your searching will be decreased from many keywords ,some get panelist too. To bring on back may take some time.
