    I fear I have been sandboxed. I was ranking in the 50s for some of my keywords in Google about a month ago, then all keywords suddenly fell off the list. I'm doing great in Yahoo + MSN, have lots of good BLs.

    Do you think I have been sandboxed, and why has this happened?

    There are many reason some being:

    Increased backlinks to quickly
    Non-natural placement of backlinks
    Repetitive filter placed on your backlinks.

    I think the 'sandbox' gets blamed for all sorts of things.

    It's a pity google doesn't have some method of showing why sites get penalised. Maybe it would help us avoid mistakes!

    Google algos tend to be random. It takes months or years to get established in google.
