If the sandbox is not link related and is really just an "aging filter" as some have claimed, that's even WORSE! What if you were to build the best, most thorough, most authoritative site in the world on some topic? Google's STATED goal is to provide the most relevant results for all search queries. Think about that. How can they possibly do so if they shunt off every new site into their penalty box based on its age alone? They can't. So they're LIARS.

Don't buy into Google's attempt to portray themselves as above it all. Think of them as you would a slick politician. Ignore what they say, and pay close attention to what they do. When you do, you quickly realize that what they say doesn't hold with what they do.
