ask what is google sandbox

The Google Sandbox effect is an alleged restriction placed on new websites. The result is that a new site does not receive good rankings for its most important keywords and keyword phrases for few months. Even with good content, many inbound links, a new website may still adversely affected by the Sandbox effect. The Google Sandbox acts as a probation for new sites, probably to discourage spam sites from rising quickly, getting banned, and repeating the process.Thus the Google Sandbox is very similar to a new website being placed on probation whose rank is kept lower than expected in searches, prior to being given full value for its inbound links and content.

for found this i use google so you can use google for more information about this.

Thanks

 

google is good but sometimes bad for my business

 

The sandbox usually takes three to six months in order to prevent spam from happening.

 

sandbox likes a black box,if you are in it,the other people can't find you

 

Hi,
when search engines found a new site on world wide web than search engine hold that site in sand box for check that the site is relevant, important or not. It's also check that site should not be spam, etc. After check these search engine indexed it.

Thanks

think of it as..an evaluation period

 

The Google SandBox is a metaphorical term coined by SEOs and Webmasters, not associated with Google, to explain why most new Websites have very poor rankings in Google Search Engine Results Pages (SERPS). The existence of Google SandBox has not yet been clearly proved but there seem to have some changes to Google's Algorithm sometime around March 2004 that denies top ranking for newly launched web sites. Of course, there are exceptions and many Web pages have made it to the top of the SERP in spite of the sandbox, but the sandbox seems to be an inevitable page rank dampening concept.

In November 2003, Google implemented what was popularly known as the "Florida Filter", a filter added to the Google Algorithm to reduce spam. The "Florida Filter" proved to be a disaster as it wiped out many small online shops but didn't fight spam producers as much as it was expected to. Spammers and link farms generate zillions of websites and millions of links every day adversely affecting the SERP rankings of certain legitimate sites. Thus Google might have decided to keep away new sites from getting good ranks till they proved themselves.

According to the sandbox effect, Google temporarily reduces the page rank of new domains, placing them into what is referred to as its "sandbox", in an effort to counter the ways that search engine optimizers attempt to manipulate Google's page ranking by creating lots of inbound links to a new web site from other web sites that they own.

As we know about sandbox? but, still is there any proper documents for the same?

In the Webmaster's World thread linked to from the "New Sites = Poor Results in Google" entry, the term "sandbox" came about. Later on, guest author SEO Guy posted an entry here using that title The Sandbox Effect, which helped make its name. Then Garrett French, who was writing at WebProNews wrote an excellent, early recap of all the coverage and named it Google "SandBox Effect" Revealed.
Since then the word sandbox has been discussed here dozens of times. But it seems to me based on the forums

A site is sandboxed when it is new and does not rank for keyword phrases that are not incredibly competitive (such as a unique company name) in Google after making the page "search engine friendly" and after being indexed.
Some are mistaken that a sandboxed site is a site that has not been indexed by Google. That is wrong. Sandboxed sites are very much so indexed by Google, but have a hard time ranking for keyword phrases, no matter how competitive they are.

 

A filter affect that Google places on new domains to stop the website from high rankings for the main keywords.Google has been withholding high ranking ability of newly launched websites for 2-4 months.

 

My new website is a victim of this sandbox thing. But the difference is I'm holding one of the major keyword in my niche for 1 month, I think I am ranked #4 in SERP before they put in my website to sandbox. Now my website is nowhere to be found on that keyword anymore or any related keyword on my niche. The only time my website will show up is when you actually search for the domain name itself.
