Is my site in the google sand box?

Hi,
I am new at IM, I have 5 mini sites but i see 2 of them #1 in relevance (in "quotes") and #10 or 12 without quotes. After 2 days they disappeared from search results, but keep on being #1 in "quotes"

Is this the sand box, or will they come back?

    Hi julio,

    Try using the site: operator to see how many pages are indexed. If none come up, you may well be in the sandbox.

    So:

    site:www.warriorforum.com

    would show you how many pages of this forum are indexed, simply replace the website with your own to check.

      From what I understand, you may still be indexed even if you are in the Google sandbox. Many new sites go through the sandbox phase so if you are doing niche blogs, you may experience this. No one knows how long it will take to get out of the sandbox but you can take a 2-month average as how long you can expect.
