  Hi @catmandopetsitting,

  In addition to your site address, can you please clarify what you mean by “Huega”?

  I look forward to hearing from you.

  It appears that I have got my old brain in a muddle, sorry.

  A company called Huega (https://www.huega.co.uk/) managed to change my web address on Google so that it went to their site, not mine. As they also use WordPress, my solitary brain cell got overloaded.

  I guess I need to investigate how they managed to change it.

  Apologies for posting in the wrong place and thanks for the help.

  Maybe WordPress could investigate as it seems like their methods are unscrupulous.

  I don’t see anything particularly wrong with https://catmandopetsitting.wordpress.com/

  What is the URL of the site with the problem?

  The Huega company didn’t change anything. When I Google “Cat Man Do Pet Sitting” I see about 382.000.000 results. Your site http://www.catmandopetsitting.co.uk/ is shown first.
  Wordpress.com has nothing to do with Google search results. To know more about SEO, https://wordpress.com/support/seo/
