    No one is quite sure about sandbox but yeah it does exist and the only way to avoid is to be natural with your link building process, don't try too hard! :p

    Yes it does but I think people hype it up too much. As long as your domain is not under 3 months old you will be ok. Otherwise you could sandbox anyone you like if you owned a tool like Xrumer.

    yes, it do exist.. Your site may be new or an existing one, but if it doesn't rank high in SERP's then the sandbox is said to be the probationary period given to your site.. you can come out of this by promoting your site, getting quality backlinks..

    Your site will get missed out in cache and will lose its PR

    Google have been silent on the subject of this sandbox, and its existence is only speculative. Some SEO practitioners maintain that no new site will rank properly until after a set time has passed because of it. The length of that time is the subject of hot debate amongst sandbox believers too, as are the exact effects of being placed in the sandbox in the first place. Most agree that the sandbox sentence lasts for six to nine months, but beyond that it’s all open for debate.

    HI,

    Making your website on Google sandbox listing is not very much tough. Just you need to follow some steps:-
    1. Submit your website on Google local listing
    2. Ask your customer's to write review on local business sites
    3. Create profile on Yelp, yellow pages and many other local business sites
    4. Claim your business on Yelp.

    Thanks
