    my site when connected to through a mobile device, reads “page not found”. Underneath it will say “view full site” but a visitor thinks that the site isn’t working. Please help. Also, when I google my name, random pages show up from my site but not a link appears from the home page. Not to mention that there is another ahmadbphotography.com. Thanks

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

    Hi there,

    You can fix it so your full site appears by default on mobile devices by going to Appearance > Mobile in your site’s dashboard. Next to Enable mobile theme, you can click the “No” option to turn off that mobile theme and have the full site visible by default. Since your theme is already mobile-ready, you don’t need to use that mobile theme.

    Also, when I google my name, random pages show up from my site but not a link appears from the home page. Not to mention that there is another ahmadbphotography.com.

    When you set up a new site, it can take Google some times (sometimes a few weeks) to recognize your site and get it to show up in its search results. We can’t control how Google displays your site in its search results, but we do notify Google and other search engines every time you update a post or page on your site — each time you make an update, it encourages Google to update its results. We have more about that here: Search Engines

    Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
