  Hi there. I hope you’ve been having a good holiday season.. I was hoping you might be able to help me with something. I was trying to do a search for my blog on Google but it’s not coming up. I’m not sure why. My old deleted one does come up however. It’s villevhttps://villevar.wordpress.com/

  Is there any way to switch them so my current one ‘gracemchalewriter’ appears?

  Thank you!

  G

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hi there,

  It sounds like Google hasn’t re-indexed your site yet at the new address, since you changed it two months ago. This re-indexing process can take several weeks, just like the initial indexing for new sites, and depends on various factors, including how regularly you post.

  To speed it up, try verifying your site in Google’s Search Console, and manually submitting your sitemap to them. It’s not guaranteed, but it usually helps.
