Registered domain several months ago but left it blank. Any SEO benefit?

    I have a terrible feeling that I missed out on something important here.

    I looked into the effects of domain name age on SERPs and concluded that its actually the amount of unbroken time that the domain has been indexed that matters more.

    Should I have put up a one page site and linked to it from other sites to get it indexed? Would it have been better now that I come to develop a site on it?

    I think I see the sandbox on the horizon :(

    Yes, from my experience it's not the reg date but the amount of time indexed. You should put up a single page and get it indexed asap.

    Having site index does help but it takes more time than a few months to make real difference. Domain also should be registered for more than a few years to get best possible benefit.

    I'm skeptical of this and would like to see some proof.

    if it's not indexed by search engines, i think you will not make any seo profit from that domain. search engine will care first cache date
