Hello, I have a fitout client operating in Melbourne.

They were a client for 6 months, with like 50 suburb pages and about 30 service pages, plus a dozen blog articles.

In November, they had some internal takeover, and the new people just moved the website from our server and made the website into a one-pager.

Then, our person of contact gained back control of the company, and reached out to us again, saying they wanted back to how it was before. We brought back our latest version of the website, did the QA of the website, resubmitted the sitemap and robots.txt file, did the speed optimisation, etc.

The website is now obviously in the sandbox with almost no organic traffic and rankings. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to get the website out of the sandbox?

I've had similar situation before with another client (plumbing industry in Perth), but I was unsuccessful in getting them out of the sandbox, so any help in this case would be highly appreciated.

You can start by building backlinks slowly and naturally or start to buy some high quality backlinks regularly every month

Double-check for any crawl errors, fix broken links, Internal Linking and ensure the website is fully optimized
 
I will suggest you keep going slow but steady. Get backlinks from some high-quality sites. Acquire HARO backlinks, and podcast backlinks. Remember Link diversity is also an important fact, but receiving from bad sites can harm your site. Always check is there aare ny broken links or any technical issues. That's it.
