My new site (5 month old) has been fully indexed for the last 2-3 month and it has no SERP at all. How long is the Google's new site "age" filter? I understand that older sites are ranked better than newer sites.
There is really no way to tell. Your site may not be optimized for the keywords you are targeting, or are in a saturated market. Keep building content and backlinks and hope for the best. Good luck
I see the top ranked sites (very competitve kw) are all older sites with little content, only 15 inbound links. So there has to be some age filter in Google. I'm just trying to figure out what that is. any theories?
Funny, my site is also 5 months old, however I have noticed in the last few days hits appearing from google. However I have had a problem when following the referral link, my site doesn't appear in the results.
I think it's due to the datacenters updating, as of yesterday/today I'm getting loads more hits from google related sites (aol, blueyonder search etc.)
I have two sites, both of equal age in terms of having content live on the server. Only difference is I owned one domain name for several years and the other was brand new domain name. The site on an older name that had previously held no content whatsoever was in the SERPS immediately. The site on a new domain name is still sandboxed 5 months later. Google claims there is no sandbox or age filtering but there is simply no other explanation for the difference i nhow the two sites I started on the exact same day are being treated so differently.
