  Hello,
  I’m trying to get my website to show up as a result if someone is using a search engine. I went into Google Search Console, copied and pasted the meta tag into Tools/Web Verification Services. I went back into Google Search Console and clicked verify. The verification worked. (1) Is what I did correct to show that I own the website and for it to show up as a result with a Google search (2) If yes, how long does it take before my site shows up on Google? (3) if not, what else do I have to do? Thanks.

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

  rxman59.com is hosted by iPage, not by wordpress.COM.

  That site is not hosted by wordpress.COM, and as it is not on our servers we cannot help you with it.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  This is wordpress.COM support. We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
  (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
  (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.
  (3) sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.

  That support is provided at https://wordpress.ORG/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/

  Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.com/support/

  Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
  http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack

  However, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
  See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support.
