Snap. Got a domain that hasn't been touched by googlebot, even with a good amont of backlinks from my own sites and others I traded with - been around 2 months now

I bought it new, but have no idea if it was 'live' in a previous time, wayback machine shows no record whatsoever of it, although I hear that's not a definitive answer, whois shows no blacklist status, so I have no idea. I actaully sent an email to google asking whether I'd inadvertently bought a domain that they had blacklisted, and if there was anything that could be done if that was the case, but no reply.
On the (somewhat) brighter side, I hear of people that don't get indexed on some domains for up to 4 months and then google decides to visit and index.
