being visible of google
-
I’m new to wordpress. I’ve published this webpage, but you can’t find it in google. I’ve tried to trouble shoot as much as possible, but can’t understand why it’s not being picked up by google. It’s been months (I’ve come back to it after a few months) and still nothing….
WP.com: Yes
Correct account: YesThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
One of the reasons a site might not show up on google could be a result of privacy settings.
While setting up your site for Search Engine Optimization, one of the things to ensure is that your site is not set to “Private” in the Privacy Settings. You would also want to make sure that search engines are allowed to index your site.
To modify this setting, log into your WordPress.com dashboard, and go to Settings >> General. Scroll to see the “Privacy” section. Ensure that your site is set to “Public”. Also, make sure that the “Discourage search engines from indexing this site” option is not ticked.
You can learn more on how to change this setting here:

Also, confirm that the site you are referring to is gabbysamuelcom.wordpress.com
Best regards

Thanks- yes that’s the site. I’ve done both of those things, but it makes no difference…..
