  Hi,

  When searching in google for my domain (pilkingtontrading.com.au), it only shows search results for the pilkingtontrading.wordpress.com domain. Is it possible to have the google search show the domain name only to improve professionalism?

  Thanks,

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

  Hi Luke,

  It looks like you only mapped your domain name within the last few hours. Significant changes to your site like a domain name change can take up to several weeks to be reflected on search engines, as they have to re-crawl your site. We have to recommend that you be patient in this process as we have no control over what Google does with their search results.

  Hi,

  Thanks for the prompt reply. New to this whole internet/search engine thing so will sit by and give it a few weeks.

  Thanks again.
