Hi, I am new to SEO. I had taken a project for seo for a web design and web development site. i had listed this site in all major search engines and directories. Even after 10 days of listing i found that the site has not appeared in search engines till date except for searching for url itself. While i was trying to look for the solution i came across this term "sandbox" then i checked for the registration date for the site and found that it was just 2 1/2 months old site. i was truing to optimise site for keywords, aweb debvelopment, web design , logos, banners, print media etc. i think that the first 3 words are highly competitive keywords. Can it happed that this site is in Sandbox. If yes what are non competitive words that i shall use for optimising this site. I have made this big mistake and if i am not able to optimise this site than i would be getting a bad remark on my first project itself. Please help
I don't think sites bet sandboxed rather than search phrases - basically anything competitive. There's no (practical) way of avoiding it, it's just something you'll have to wait out.
