Default Sandbox effect

The site Boeafitness.com quite possibly fell into the sandbox.

This conclusion brought to attention when pages that where directory listings with the site in them came up higher then the site itself.

Search for workout routines then go to result page 6. You will notice that "Boeafitness.com - Workout routines Rate a Resource" comes up on that page.

That page goes to this url "all-linksite.com/cgi-bin/links/rate.cgi?ID=16800"

But the site www.boeafitness.com comes up on page 7.

How could that be when it's less relevant I find that strange.

Even when you check allintext: allinurl: allintitle:

www.boeafitness.com comes up on the first page of results.

So why isn't it reflecting in the results that are displayed.

Maybe when there is another big database update there will be a increase in rankings.

Or is this a result of the sandbox because sites that are not relevant to that term are coming up higher in the search results.

And Boeafitness.com is a lot more relevant.

Another thing is the backlinks that are shown using google it only displays 10 of them.

And Boeafitness.com has about 240 backlinks total.

But maybe google is trying to fix it's algorithm or maybe it's this sandbox thing.
