What is the Google Sandbox and how you can avoid it.

To watch these videos, please download Flash Player

By Ken Pearce

The Google sandbox is many things to different organizations. Some experts think that it is a holding area for new web sites to prove that they are worthy before having access to the higher ranking pages of Google. Other analysts say that it is an unusual and unpredictable algorithmic element that is difficult to define. There are theories that the sandbox is like a filter that will place newer web sites on top of older web sites that will funnel out of the bottom of the sandbox in an unspecified amount of time (anywhere from two to six months) from the launch site date. It has been theorized that the ‘Google sandbox effect” is a method of keeping the spamming web sites out of the higher page rankings for a short term, but at the same time is affecting the truly valuable web sites that have been recently launched.

The Sandbox effect usually happens to web sites in the English language. It is noticeably absent from the Dutch and Italian websites. It seems to affect the commercial and private sector sites and does not seem to trap the .gov, .mil or the .edu sites. It started showing up after 2003 and does not affect well established web sites that were published before that time. Recently releases web sites on Yahoo, MSN and Ask Jeeves are usually seen in a quicker time frame than on Google search engines.
