    If my site is being sandboxed, what shall I do next? Stop the site and move to next one or there is anything that I can do to remove from being sandboxed? Please help me.

    My effort just gone with the wind. Very sad. Thanks

    I have read that opting for Google adwords helps in cancelling the sandbox effect. Worth trying if you invested a lot into your website.

    I think that you should keep working on site, sandbox will be gone with the time. Quality content, some backlinks and Google will be cancal sandbox.

    The first thing I would do is check if you have any spam on the site. Make sure you are not scraping or keyword stuffing etc.

    The second thing I would do is check what pages come up when you do a search site:domain name see how many pages you have indexed... it could be that you are not sandboxed only not listed for whatever reason.

    Use the google webmasters tool to see if they are reporting any errors with your site and create a google xml sitemap

    Then wait and see if it helps...

    Another reason this may happen is you suddenly got a whole bunch of links.... or you made a major change and google is checking you out...
