Get Out of the Sandbox

Dec 12, 2005 - 8:41 am 2 by

DaveN at Search Engine Watch Forums posts a gem on how to get out of the Sandbox. He names the thread Google Sandbox - Get out Feature and gives us these steps:

  • Get an old domain, something which google crawls
  • Then put a subdomain on it ... newsite.olddomain.com original
  • Copy the site exactly on the sub as it is in the orginal date last modifed to a few months after the domain was first registered
  • Add a Link from the real site something like www .newsite.com ( forget about seo anchor text links, these are just to let google in
  • Now 301 the subdomain to the new site

That is it, forum discussion at Search Engine Watch Forums.
