If you know anything about search engine optimization then you have probably gotten word of the Google sandbox. The sandbox is a thing that nobody knows for sure if it exists. It is a filter that people believe will prevent your new site from achieving the ranking it deserves because it is new to the Google index.
So you want to know if it exists? I really can't answer that. The only true way to know would be to register a domain, optimize the page and build links to it all on the same day, have Google index all those and see if you jump to number one. I don't know of any SEO that is that good!
I have a site that I built that was on the first page of Google for a competitive keyword in less than 30 days. I will admit that after the first 14 days of domain registration it was indexed below position one hundred and then jumped to number 40. But couldnt that have been a result of my increased optimization efforts.
In conclusion, I think the sandbox is not there. If it does exist it doesn't take a site long to get out of it if you know how to optimize offsite correctly. I don't think there is anybody out there that can expect going into it that they should be on page 1 in less than 30 days. Most places say 3-6 months.
I think what people refer to as the sandbox is simply the fact that it takes a little time to outrank sites that have been indexed for some time. I mean the fact is to get a higher ranking you have to pass sites that were there before you.
