Beating the Google Sandbox (TrustBox)

My latest SEO Report Card addresses the mythical monster that continues to rear its ugly head... the "Google Sandbox." No I'm not going to get into a debate about whether it exists or not. It does. End of discussion. :-) What I am going to do is try to render some assistance to some nice folks selling fair trade products online, Two Hands Worldshop. It touches a soft spot for me that they care about the raw deal that overseas workers get -- those who make our clothes, shoes, toys, furniture, electronics etc. They started a business to promote commerce based on fair trade. Good for them! Maybe you, dear reader, might find it in your heart to help them too. Give 'em a link! That'll help them get out of the 'box sooner. Plus all the meaty advice I gave them in my article "Escaping the Google Sandbox: New sites face same issues as Twohandsworldshop.com" will help too. They've already begun implementing the advice -- like 301 redirecting www.twohandsworldshop.com to twohandsworldshop.com -- and my article just came out. How cool is that!
