Cannot Add Tags in Reader or See My Post
-
Why is it that after I publish a post, I cannot search it immediately in my own Reader based on tags? Normally, I cannot even add a tag to my list, whether it is a tag on my own post or not. It has been 30 minutes today and I still can’t add a tag to my search list. I have refreshed and reopened WordPress several times. Also, I cannot find my own post when manually entering “/tag/whatever” in my browser’s address bar after “wordpress.com”.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

All reasons for non-appearance of posts on Topics pages can be found here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts
As you have assigned a combined total that exceeds 15 Categories/Tags to your posts, you need to edit and delete. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/ After removal of the excess categories and/or tags note it may take several days for your posts to begin displaying there.
You are are inadvertently spamdexing AKA tag spamming, you ought to be more concerned about your posts not appearing and being well ranked on Google and Bing SERPS (search results pages) than not appearing on the WordPress.com Topics pages because it’s search engines that send a significant flow of traffic to blogs and they can choose to bury your content where the sun don’t shine for that.
The rule of thumb is to assign to your posts the least, not the most, combined number of only relevant categories and tags that accurately describe the individual post content.
