What is google sandbox?

The Google Sandbox effect is an alleged restriction placed on new websites. The result is that a new site does not receive good rankings for its most important keywords and keyword phrases for few months. Even with good content, many inbound links, a new website may still adversely affected by the Sandbox effect. The Google Sandbox acts as a probation for new sites, probably to discourage spam sites from rising quickly, getting banned, and repeating the process.Thus the Google Sandbox is very similar to a new website being placed on probation whose rank is kept lower than expected in searches, prior to being given full value for its inbound links and content.

What is Robot Text ?

The robots.txt file is the first file search engine "spiders" look for when indexing a website. The robots.txt file tells search engine spiders (robots) which files and directories they are NOT allowed to index. This helps to prevent incomplete site indexing as well as prevent exposing the files and directories that you don't want listed. You may disallow, for example, "Google Images" from indexing certain directories and pages on your site, but not block "Google" itself from indexing those same files.

What is Spider ?

A spider is a program which browses the World Wide Web in a methodical, automated manner. A web crawler is one type of bot. Web crawlers not only keep a copy of all the visited pages for later processing - for example by a search engine but also index these pages to make the search narrower.

What is a Site Map?

A site map is a web page that lists all of the other web pages on a web site.
A site map augments, but does not replace, the normal menu system of a web page.
Building a good site map is critical for web pages which use JavaScript menus, because most search engines cannot follow JavaScript links. A Site Map will help those web pages to be indexed by the search engines.
A site map can also be very beneficial to web users, because it will help them to understand what resources the web page has for them.
A site map should be very well organized and easy to understand. The design should be clean and simple.

What is the rel="nofollow" attribute?

The extension was the introduction of the rel="nofollow" attribute for HTML links.

The purpose of the rel="nofollow" attribute is to create HTML links which can be viewed and clicked by normal web users, but which will not be counted as a link by the search engines.

This is to enable web logs and web forums to allow users to post links in messages and signatures -- without encouraging link spammers to abuse that system.

A normal HTML link looks like this:
