Best Way to Determine Age of Site

What's the best way to determine the age of a site?
Where by it's beginning I mean when it went through the Google Sandbox and has been a functioning site every since.
Thanks!

I think archive.org may be my best bet. Thanks for the good advice

are you talking about versions of sites to see how old that particular website is or the domain?
obviously whois information is great for domains

there is also a way to see old versions of websites here:

I've previously used Webconfs do research domain age - it's a pretty good resource. Don't think you'll be able to tell exactly when it made it's way through the Google Sandbox, but you should at least be able to determine when it went online. Although, if it was was anytime after 1998-99, then it's almost guaranteed to have made a trip to the box

Anyone suspect that a site's total page count affects SEO?
I've been trying to find out the underlying reason why so many websites are ranked higher than mine despite seemingly having far worse links. I've spent a lot of time researching and have read through all the general advice about what could possibly be hurting my site's SEO, from page speed to h1 tags to broken links, and all the various on-page SEO optimization stuff....so the issue here isn't very obvious. From viewing all of my competitors, they seem to have a much higher number of web pages on their sites than mine does. My site currently has 20 pages or so and most of my competitors are well in the hundreds, so I'm wondering if this could potentially be part of the issue here. I know Google has never officially said that page number matters, but does anyone suspect that perhaps page count matters towards SEO and that competing sites with more total pages than you might have an advantage SEOwise?

Permalinks best structure
Hello all, 1. I have a website under WordPress and I would like to know whici is the best permalink structure? I have seen in many post that /%postname%/ would be the best in terms of SEO although performance is not very good (But in WP latest version the speed issue has been solved?). 2. Additionally I would like to know if in terms of SEO it is better to publich the content as a page or as a post. The page publishing allows to have the path: www.example.com/page/subpage/etc... root that I understand is good for SEO? 3. How does affect for SEO a page i.e. www.example.com/page1 with links to different posts that have the permalink structure i.e: /%postname%/ I mean, if I click on the page www.example.com/page1 and then in the link to the POST inside that page and I am redirected to www.example.com/post How does affect the SEO? Thank you very much for the help, Best regards, Antonio

Youtube dofollow link to web site
Is there still a dofollow link back from a youtube channel to your web site? I filled in the site url in the profile, which in my understanding used to be the single dofollow link back to your web site. However, when I view the page source for the youtube channel it shows up as a nofollow link. Also, in OSE the link does not appear. Has this changed or am I just not doing this correctly?
