  I have my settings set to public and everything is in place. When I search for my site, the ‘coming soon’ page still comes up.

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

  Hi there,

  Can you tell us what do you mean by ‘search my site’? Where did you search your site and where did you see the ‘coming soon’ page?

  Let us know in a reply and we’ll be happy to help :)

  When I click the link to my site through Instagram. If I just type the URL in a browser, it works fine.

  Ok it works fine when you type in the URL in the browser. Right!

  But it doesn’t work when you click the link via Instagram?

  Can you link us your Instagram account? Or can you show which link have you shared on Instagram? :)

  Oh!!

  I see you have two different sites –
  1) http://aliciavernickdesign.com
  2) and http://aliciavernickdotcom.wordpress.com/

  I was checking the site mentioned in the original post.

  Now I understand what you mean. When you search for aliciavernickdesign.com in Google search, it shows up this result –

  Alicia Vernick Design — Coming Soon

  So the solution is actually to wait. As google takes few days to few weeks to index or crawl your site.

  Or you can follow these instructions provided by Google –
  https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6065812?hl=en

  I hope this helps :)

  Note that – Your site aliciavernickdesign.com is not hosted on WordPress.COM but it is on Bluehost. So if you’re looking for support related to that site, the best place to look for support would be WordPress.ORG forums.
