Hi, I have a site that is ranking great for a ton of terms, has about 2000+- fairly good links. My question is, if I launch a new site on a subdomain does it still risk hitting the sandbox?
No chance, but a reasonable cirtainty. The aging process does not start until the present domain context is set by Site content, meta, page titles stc Linking site anchor, context page titles etc Set context and come back in a year
