haha I love the Google Slap term.. there’s also this term they are calling as SERP Shuffle which is happening to my blogs that they “dribble” from the SERPs.

The sandbox is the focus of much fearful discussions in the forums. It is funny that people flip out when they don't see their sites on the first 2 pages of SERPS and they assume that they are sandboxed, I think they forget to check the other 200 pages :-( JR @ Internet Marketing Strategiess last blog post..Affiliate Marketing - 16 Website Content Ideas

Man you don’t even know how long I’ve waited for this since disabling my own Movable Type widget (that doesn’t work since Haloscan bypasses that code).

Thankfully I have managed to miss the sandbox so far with my new blog. I will never understand their algorithm, I can employ the exact same link building tactics on two different sites and have completely different results in terms of getting in/out of the sandbox.

Somehow I feel this is more of a post for some decent SEO juice than anything else :) You have some really great concepts for picking up beginning webmasters. I really wonder how this will work out for conversions / followers in the not so distant future. Your work and efforts already pays off, but it should channel in case you succeed with what you are doing. And if not you still have great projects with a lot of google juice.

It’s just amazing how after 10 years, Google owns pretty much the whole Internet. We all depend on a least one of Google’s resources when we surf the Internet.

well rightly said Alexa measures the traffic of Alexa users…. so this is not accurate and google thing is something that makes the people smile and to frown their brows at the same time……. it’s kinda unpredictable…

@khathan, this blog is a good example. If you look back through my stats and check the traffic stats you’ll see that at the beginning there was virtually no SE traffic and then there was a bit of a jump a few months later and now around a third of my traffic is from SE’s. I’m pretty sure this blog was sandboxed for a few months.

@kouji, thanks for the stumble :)

@Carrie, yeah I bet John Cow is raking in a TON of traffic as a result of Chow’s ongoing slap!

John Chow was mentioned here a week or two ago so I did a search on his name and got "John Cow". I was so confused b/c I have heard Chow's name before as a big IM guru but yet couldn't find his site? The Google slap is a scary thing. Carries last blog post..Niche Site Update

good post caroline, i guess a lot of people don't know what some of these terms are.. the sandbox is an interesting phenomenon and although a lot of people say it doesn't exist, well i put two sites up, both got indexed, one appeared in the serps almost immediately and has not budged since while the other has spent the last 2 months hardly appearing in the serps, seems like it has been sandboxed, but tough to say for sure.. kahthans last blog post..Ironblogger Contest: $1000 Worth of Prizes

Good idea…we kinda take it for granted that our readers will know all the terms we use. Sometimes we have to get a little more basic or we risk losing our audience.

yeah, your right — gsandbox is a real myth.

I wonder why most people get into the trap of thinking that is not a myth.

Duplicate content is another myth that most marketers fall for.
