Google sandbox

EDIT: This seemed to be a fluke or mistake on Google's side yesterday because now the article is up on the first page of google today.

Looks like my joy from my previous blog post was a bit premature. Today one of my articles disappeared and from what I've searched on here, it would appear that article is in Google Sandbox. I'm not a happy camper about this as you can imagine but I'll persevere and keep releasing content.

I actually released one fun post today and I have more planned in advance for next week.

The only thing I'm worried about is more (or all?) of my pages getting stuck in Sandbox for months to come. I've read that pages with popular keywords can stay in the sandbox longer. Does that mean I shouldn't post articles with popular topics? My keywords are all low hanging fruit and low competition. :/

You'll be ok. Happens to nearly all new websites. If you post frequently with quality content, Google will want to index your posts faster.

Thank you for your comment, Jay! :)

Don't get discouraged: you will have plenty of hiccups like this. Like the time I thought I was starting to see a small traffic snowball that ended up being spam traffic. This stuff happens a lot to new websites because they are still growing.

Just don't give up and keep making new content. Keep going through the course and watching webinars, you'll get there soon enough.

Thank you for your response! I'm actually not worried any more, some of the similar posts on here recommended not to worry. Besides, the article just popped up on Google again. :D

I'll keep posting new articles and learn in the process. :)
