Google SandBox!
 

HI,

I just found out that my site has been put into the Google Sandbox:(....can anyone tell me how to get it out?:p Below is a copy of what I sent to searchengingeni.com...is there anything else I can do? The bad thing about it is I don't know what I did to get there...Please help!!:eek:

Site URL: http://www.rcmodel-airplanes.com
Your site is in 102 position which is virtually considered to be still in Google Sandbox. Contact support@searchenginegenie.com to get you out of Sandbox

MANY THANKS,

Gerry:confused:

Just wait now

Re: Google SandBox!
 

I'm very confused.

1. Have you verified this by googling it yourself?

2. Do you do business with searchenginegenie?
If yes, AND you strictly let them promote your site, FIRE THEM.
If yes, AND you were doing stupid stuff on your own, FIRE YOU(you broke it)
If no, it sounds like spam. Or perhaps you signed up for site monitoring with them?


Check all the keywords you know you should rank for. If your ranking dropped for all the keywords you previously ranked well for, be prepared for a slow couple of months. Your analytics/logs app will tell you if traffic has actually dried up.


Someone correct me if I'm wrong here:
If you have been penalized, stop and reevaluate everything you've been doing SEO-wise. Something was either too fast(seemed unnatural) or just plain bad(spammy). Start over with making more good content and building honest, regular backlinks.

You also might want to start working on another site, or non-google ways of generating traffic.

Hi Sam...wait for how long???:( What can we do in the mean time to find out how to correct this?;)

Thanks,

Here is a copy of the information from Google...

Site URL: http://www.rcmodel-airplanes.com
Your site is in 102 position which is virtually considered to be still in Google Sandbox. Contact support@searchenginegenie.com to get you out of Sandbox

I sent them a email to the address above....Haven't gotten any response yet.:(

Question #2. No, I don't do business with them.

I put up some videos in YouTube to promote my business and did some back links from the method of Matt Carter...other than that I don't know what I could have done...

Is there anything put out by Google that you can read to see how they measure what you are doing with your site? Anything would be helpful.:D

Thanks again,

Gerry

First. You did not get an email from Google telling you to contact someone else about your placement. (FYI, google does not use the term sandbox.)

Second: Reread my first post and answer all the questions. I believe all you need to know Is there.

Re: Google SandBox!
 

Keep building links and make sure they are from quality sites (relevant to your niche, high PR, etc)

Once you come out, you will rank way higher than you did before.

PS: You aren't even sandboxed. I just checked.

You're probably just bouncing cuz google doesnt know what to do with all of these new links. Just keep building them at a steady pace and make sure they are from quality sites. Trust me.

Re: Google SandBox!
 

I see you are from SC...is there anyway we could speak? I really need someone to talk to about all this:confused:...I live in a small town and don't have anyone to talk to for advise...need some help real bad:(...I am sure that you were there once...LOL!!
Many thanks for the advise...Gerry

Re: Google SandBox!
 

Hi,
I just checked your website and you are ranking 14 for main keyword. How did you manage to get out of sandbox? And how long it took?

Re: Google SandBox!
 

Hi Galyna,

I sent an email through this site and in a couple of days I started ranking again...showed up on page 15..then I went to work placing some youtube Videos and now I am where you saw me at in Google...this has took about 2 weeks to move up this far...:eek:;)

Here is the url to the site for Google Search Engine genie...;)Google Sandbox checker Tool,Sandbox checker Google Sandbox Checker Tool

Hope this helped...

Re: Google SandBox!
 

Basically it just means your not in the top 10 pages of the SERPs. Just keep building your backlinks and adding new content to your website.

The search engines like lots of content.

When you get to page 10 of the SERPs...you won't get the message anymore.

Re: Google SandBox!
 

Thanks Chooch...will do...Gerry;)

Re: Google SandBox!
 

Thanks Gerry for sharing your experience with us, it helps to know there is a way out if this should happen. I thought that sandbox was reserved to newly created sites for the first months when they went online.

Re: Google SandBox!
 

Your site is not sandboxed. It is just hoping in and out. Just continue with the link building and content. You should be fine.
