Friends can't find my blog
-
Hi,
I am very new to this and have tried to direct my friends to my blog with no success. I have given them the full url, but it comes up with no results. I have also tried this myself and can’t get to my blog that way. Any help gratefully accepted, thanks.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

We are obviously doing something wrong. Do they just type this url into the searchbox on the homepage of WP? Thanks for help.

Yes, but have typed the address into my IE browser address bar, and tried it in google and it still comes up as no results. I am generally quite computer literate, but this just isn’t working. Maybe I’ll go try it on main PC instead of laptop and see if that works.

Make sure you are typing the prefix http:// correctly in the address bar.
Or don’t type it at all, leaving only andypandyandco.wordpress.com (the browser should still recognizeFor example, if you leave the colon and type http//etc… your browser will not accept it.

OK……..this works on main PC but not on laptop. How strange is that? Thank you for your help.

@andy – your blog is 19 hours old and you have one Post in it – expecting a search engine to know about you is not realistic – it can take 4 to 6 weeks for a site to be indexed by Google – Google does sort of know about your site as the WordPress software calls up the search engines and says “new stuff here – stop by” but it still takes time.
Send your friends an email with the link COPIED from your browser window –

And try a different browser on your laptop, depending on how old your browser is it might not support WordPress sites.
