    HI,

    ok I've got 2 web sites that have now been sandbox for 1 year 6 months.

    http://www.lanzarotetourist.com/

    This I think is starting to come out for 2-3 word combo's but it's still for main keywords no where to be found.

    http://www.lanzarotetourist-puertodelcarmen.com/

    This site is no where for any terms, I've tried press releases, relevant links ensured different anchor text + more.

    I know people say with google you have to wait but this is really getting me down now, a year and a half is a bloody long time for your web sites to never be found in google.

    I'm not banned for either site, the 'site:' command brings back results and I still have PR. I've tried on page SEO and off page, ensured to have H1 tags, bold, html4.01 valid etc etc on both and only ever tried 'white-hat' not 'black hat' seo

    I did have a massive drop in allinanchor on the second url which I don't know why.

    I'm not looking for poeple to say "your page looks nice/crap" I'm really after some advice to try and help get the site found, different ways or trying to promote it etc if possible.

    Rant over.

    JP :(

    well you're appearing at #9 for lanzarote tourist i'd say you're probably not in the sandbox

    o thats always good, but, my main keyword is 'Lanzarote' which is ranking no where and it what I've been trying to rank for :(

    allinanchor for Lanzarote is around 30 at the moment (for lanzarotetourist.com), but the site can't be found in google still and it's a year and a half, perhaps I'm missing something but I don't think anyone is boxed for that long (or maybe 1% of people).

    If I don't get anywhere soon I'll take drastic measures, if someone helps me achive a top 10 ranking for Lanzarote I'll give them 1 months adsense takings on that site ;)
