Sandboxed

[SEOwins]

Hi all,

Any help with the following.  We built a new site for a customer in June of last year.  We then cracked on with the on page and off page SEO.  All white had....good quality.  3 months in the site was still not ranking with google and indeed had been sandboxed.  All working fine with Bing and Yahoo.  We followed all the steps to get recognitions for Google but to no avail.  In December we took the drastic step of providing the customer with a completely new site...new content, design, structure etc etc.  In Jan we went back and fixed all the external linking sources to link to the new pages on the new site.  Now 7 months in.....the site is STILL sandboxed.  All still fine with Bing and Yahoo.

Thoughts anyone?

Hello,

Can you tell if you have keywords on the top of google search with that website?

If you don't mind sharing, what is the site?  Doing some exploring might help us better understand the situation.

How are you confirming that it is sandboxed?

Lawrence,

You know that you only have 2 domains pointing to your site right? Whats your strategy on link-building?

| .stanford.edu/ |
|
|
| *.tsa.gov/ |
|
|
| *.case.edu/ |
|
|
| *.howtowakeupearly.com/ |

Those are the domains pointing to your site

Oh I see.  They are just links. Both have a relevancy for this site.

Still lost as to why the site is struggling

Google does not recognise the name of the site

Lawrence,

The link-building is a important part of off-page SEO. In my point of view, you should start creating a strategy to associate your site with others of the same area.

Also if you have a blog you should creat relevant content with texts and share them on the social media plataforms such as Twitter (that you already have), Facebook and also Linkdinn. You must have the Goolge +1 on the site aswell.

Last but not least as I see in Woorank (http://www.woorank.com/en/www/playgrounddevelopments.co.uk) you have alot of work ahead of you......on-page and off-page.....
