Ok I have a new mini site up Its a keyword rich domain name The domain/site has recently been crawled and indexed buy google (27. Nov) However its not coming up in searches. Which is fine its new But according to my serp checker it aint coming up anywhere in the top 1000 Also and more importantly: I know its indexted because when I type in Site:mydomain.com its there its also there when i type in "mydomain.com" but not when I type mydomain.com this last thing has thrown me a bit Does google have something against mini sites Should I just wait and see
If your niche is competitive 6 months is probably how long you will spend in the sandbox, if not you could be ranking in weeks.
another odd thing when using firefox's seo plugin it says the home page has 55 Yahoo links and 0 yahoo page links even though its the same page
i would agree, If you are showing up at all you are not sandboxed. throw up a few hundred backlinks and you will see a world of difference.
