what the google sandbox looks like

I thought people might find this pretty interesting. it's from a relatively small mini-site (few dozen pages at most). we did a 301 on the entire domain to a subdomain on an existing domain that wasn't sandboxed. and there was an immediate increase in traffic- it was impressively fast, actually, the increase happened within 24 hours.

the graph.

pretty much solid confirmation that the sandbox doesn't apply for subdomains, in case anyone was still kicking that question around in the back of their head
