I was playing in the google sandbox one day and to my horror there was a cat poop in there.

 

are you kidding me?? see sig

 

Thanks

I guess, I'm gonna get my eyes checked soon cause I looked but couldn't really find it.

Hope i don't get another darn infraction, cause i got one a few weeks ago for posting a Pagerank post here.

 

One of my sites was sandboxed. But, after several months (6-8) Google is back and indexing pages like a mad machine.

I'm guessing that the initial good ranking is to get you exposure and then they back off to see if your visitors keep coming without their help. If they do then they know your site is good. Otherwise they keep you in the basement.

 

i find it funny that someone who's sites all have to do with link building, has no idea what the "sandbox" is.

 

lol... try google and spell it right this time Sandbox effect


thx

just a question though,

can a site be moved back to the sandbox for whatever reasons?

 

Sandbox is where you don't want to be. It's hell in there. And yes... you can be penalized whenever the G thinks you should be.
