    I found this funny rather than impressive and I need to share it with you guys :D

    This morning I have noticed that I'm #1 for the key term "video web directory"!

    It might not be a fantastic key term but the funny part of the story is that I have 6 google links queued under my site! :D Oh god, I love that!

    Check this out

    That's nice. I see that you have a PR0 and yet you rank really well for that keyword. Great for you!

    Seems you are the only one targetting that term, well done all the same.

    In 10 years time a "video web directory" may be the hot trend, you will have a nice head start:)

    I don't want to spoil your fun but probably your site will go a way soon from nr 1 and much lower.
    I saw that with my new site and other new sites.

    Because you will be #1 for your own domain and a few keywords that you dont get any traffic for, but will be on page 5+ for your targetted keywords.

    Its not much of a sandbox, more of a automatic filter added when they spot un-natural link building.

    But the talk of a sandbox has usually been attached to virtually all brand new sites, as in your sites brand new so will be sandboxed for a bit, what if someone is hardly doing any link building?

    And who came up with this term in the first place?:)

    That is really cool that you are #1. I don't think that your site will be in the sandbox & also the term you are on #1 has some really amazing competition.
