I've got a similar problem. I have a new site, www.parkercomputerguy.com, and Google seems to be ignoring it.

This is what I've done so far.

Submitted to every search engine I can find (big and little), free submissions only.

I'm still creating the site so I'm adding content and updating it almost daily.

I'm working on a link campaign, I have a few PR 5 sites linking to me, these links don't show up when I run reports in linkpopularity.com and marketleap.com, do I need to give it more than a few weeks to show?

I'm running a paid campaign on exactseek.com (and their group of 50 small search engines) for the term spyware removal.

HELP! I don't expect to be number but I wish Google would know I exist.

Rad,

Have you tried Joel's cool offer of a Free Reciprocal Link?

I recently had 2 sites that were indexed in less then a week after placing a link, & this was the only thing that I did to let the search engines know that I exist.

In the past I have purchased PR7 links, submitted to search engines etc., and didn't get indexed for a month or two.

I can't believe that it was a coincidence!

Well I've been busy writing to people for links in the past week. No immediate increase in clicks but I will post here when I get some meaningful results from linking. If others do like wise may we could establish some usefull data as to links vs benefits seen

Not a good idea. Get links to the site & let SEs find your site on their own.

Most of you just need to wait. Google is just now indexing some sites I created 3-4 months ago. They are just a lot slower about this than they were a year or 2 ago.

Waiting a few months to get indexed by Google is such a pain. MSN and the others already indexed my other sites, but I have to wait a few months in order to get indexed. Is this referred to as the Google sandbox?

My secret submit or to be fast cache by Google is Never submit to Google..?
please dont and never submit your new url on this address
www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl

the best way is find high PR free submit site, submit your link.
i only need 2 days to be index in google after listed in site with PR3.
If you have site with PR7 you only need 24 hours to be cache by Google.

That my secret

I've been reading about SEO lately and I read that if you get a new domain it will take search engines longer to index you. Mainly that will cause you to be put in the sandbox right away. So I think creating subdomains or just using new subdirectories to make new web site is wise, unless you know you will want this site to have it's own domain... But you could also get the domain and create a redirect to save yourself the waiting time.

Hope that helps some people!

There are two issues here:

One is Google knowing you exist. That ought to happen within 72 hours of your first inbound link from a quality site. You know you've been added because you can find your site address in their system.

Then, there's ranking and sending traffic. Google has this weird system where you can get added, but then go into the sandbox and disappear for several months. So the early signs are encouraging, but then, you disappear and just sit and stew.

I honestly believe Google is broken. I see consistently good rankings for my sites from Yahoo and MSN. I find search returns from those search engines better and more relevant as well. But how does a site that is, say, #15 on Yahoo (and one that is long past the sandbox...) not even show up in Google's TOP 1000 RESULTS??? :rolleyes:

Google is the big dog...twice as big as Yahoo...4 times MSN. Thus, they are constantly under attack from people trying to break their ranking algorithms and get their crap sites ranked highly for a short-term score. Google has to contend with all that AND try to index and rank sites just normally as well while the web continues to grow by leaps and bounds. I personally think they are doing a fairly poor job. But I hope they can get things straightened around someday. They have an awful lot of us by "the short hairs"...and they're killing our worthwhile, content-based, white-hat-only businesses.

In the meantime, you can see why I get a little irritated with people who are filling the web with crap rather than just building for quality the first time. But...people are inherently lazy. And "getting rich quick" is always a seductive philosophy. Yet...it's no way to run a society...or the world...or the internet. :(

In thinking about the Sandbox effect, my theory is not that Google is broken - just profit driven.

If someone creates a brand new site - which is extremely well optimized and already has inbound links to it; is it really in Google's best interest to imediately list that site at the top of their search results?

If I had a site immediately go to the top of Google's search list, I would be less inclined to advertise with them. Why would I need to as being in the top 10 usually generates pretty good traffic without advertising.

But as I wait for one of my sites to get out of the sandbox, I do find myself using Adwords until I get out.

Anyway, just my theory.

4/9/2007 - Actually, after following Google for some time now I feel my initial theory is invalid; Google is a 'do no evil' company and I know there is no way they would let their bread and butter search engine be corrupt with profit in mind. I am more inclined to beliave the sandbox effect is more for spam protection.

Actually, that's a good theory. Paying for advertising until your site is listed makes good business sense from Google's persecptive.

However, being sandboxed may not be such a bad thing. Obviously, with a new site you want traffic asap to earn revenue. However, I look at it this way.

With all the junk sites being set up constantly, they have to have a way to figure out what's a good quality site and what isn't...hence the sandbox. The junk sites are thrown up and left, while the "webmaster" (and I use this term loosely) goes on to make a dozen more of these useless sites. Therefore, they don't bother to update or look after the sites already up and running. These will eventually be removed from the Index. The good quality content sites will show that they are being continually updated with new content, and receiving quality inbound links....and they will get indexed and moved up in rank and postion. The junk gets flushed out, the better sites rise to the top. It may take time, but in the end my sites will start performing well and be there for the long haul.

Just my thoughts on the situation.
