When I type my blog name into Google, it doesn’t come up in the results. How do I get it to do this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

It takes weeks for search engines to index content. What attracts search engines is unique content the cannot in posts that cannot be found anywhere else on the internet. Start now publishing original content posts frequently two or even three times weekly. For more information read > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/01/21/omg-i-cant-find-my-blog-on-google/
The process we use for verifying free hosted WordPress.com blogs with search engines is found here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/
Note: Even if you do not verify the blog the content will be indexed by search engines so don’t feel panicky about this please.
WordPress.com provides the search engines with site maps. We bloggers do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/
Lastly note that we cannot assist with search engine issues. They are between the blogger and the search engine. http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

you have a one week old blog with two posts – not much for a search engine to grab onto – as noted above – you need to add more content and be patient for the 4 to 6 weeks it takes for a new blog to be indexed

Probably the 4 to 6 weeks is hidden in one of the links as is the part about a lot of content –
It seems to work better for me if I point out how old their site is if it is very new vs. the 4 to 6 week time frame for indexing as well as the small amount of content in the OP’s blog – some blogs however the content flag I skip if they have put a ton of Posts on it – in the Post here as opposed to having the same information in a link
Or I will sometimes point out the 4 to 6 & content then put a link with a note on more tips here – many times the links go to your site
