i just found out that my google webmaster tools shows that "Googlebot last successfully accessed your home page on Nov 2, 2007." thats still the time my website was down ... so does it mean i'm not sandbox ?
n3o, it could mean that google saw your website is down and removed you for those keywords...google doesnt want to provide its users with dead websites...just make sure your site is running and you should reclaim your position within a week or so. If your site is less than 3 months old...it very well could be sandboxed.
