    I just registered a domain but cannot figure out how to build a site for that domain. In other words, how do I get started building a site using the domain I just registered? Also, I want my site to appear first in the search results when someone googles my name. How do I coordinate this (seo etc.)?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    Your site eladylime.wordpress.com is currently loading at the domain eladylime.com on my side. Is this working for you as well? Although your blog admin address is eladylime.wordpress.com, your visitors should only see eladylime.com when they view your site or any of your posts. You can just start adding posts and pages following the instructions here:

    Regarding SEO, WordPress.com handles SEO optimization for you. Beyond the normal optimizations like your sitemap, which you can view here:

    http://eladylime.wordpress.com/sitemap.xml

    We also have a Global Tagging (Topics) system that search engines love and we ping out to all the major engines every time you update your blog.

    However, it can take up to 4-6 weeks for your site to appear in search results. You can read more here:
