  Hello there @zmsablog,

  Congratulations on your new Blog!

  The most important step for a new site is to make sure you have your “blog privacy settings” to Public so that everyone can find the site via search engines (https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/)


  After that, its important to know that it takes a bit of time for your blog/site to be found by Google and other sites like them.


  Here is a list of things you can also do to increase the traffic to your new site > https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-more-views-and-traffic/

  And > https://en.support.wordpress.com/increase-your-site-traffic/

  I really hope this answers your question.
