I suppose it had to happen at some point. SEOmoz is finally sandbox free for the first time since our move to this domain 9 months ago. We aren’t alone, either. Many folks had sites escape, and I’m happy for all of them. It looks like our 12,000+ all-natural links (never link built for this site, just link-baited) finally paid off.
Check out our current rankings for all sorts of nifty (but no traffic) phrases:
So… We’re doing better. We don’t yet rank for any big money terms, but Google’s sent about 100 visitors per day to us, as opposed to the 10-20 they’ve been sending over the past 9 months. If you’ve got a happy sandbox escaping story, please share.
p.s. I’m thinking about re-directing SEOmoz.org to SEOmoz.com just to mess with GG and see how long we can get put back in 🙂
