Your site theme and content are the main reason your site will be sandboxed.

The last 2 sites I built (in the last 2 months);
Both are absolutely clean with very few links and one is at #1 in G's serps the other nowhere to be found, though fully indexed.

Just build a clean site, let links come naturally, don't have too many outgoing links and hope for the best. This has helped me avoid the sandbox twice, however depending on keywords there can be no avoiding the sandstorm
