If your sites shows in search result for certain keywords, Does it means your site is not in sandbox? How to determine if it is or not...Thanks!

if your site is beginning to rank then you are prob out of the sandbox. :)

Hi,
The Sandbox Effect is the theory that websites with newly-registered domains (or with pages yet to receive a PageRank calculation) are placed in a sandbox (holding area) in the indexes of Google until actual ranking is counted by google.

There are many different opinions about it, including the view that the Sandbox Effect doesn't actually exist, Sandbox Effect are disputed by webmasters, there is general agreement that the Sandbox only applies to search results from Google, and that results from other search engines such as Yahoo or MSN are not affected

You can take a quick look to check of your site is in Sandbox or Not

So, since my site get first page in fairly specific searches but low rank in more general seaches and doesn't have any links showing in googles link popularity, I'm in the sand box?

From the information that you have given, it does not appear that you are in the Google Sandbox.
