  Oh thank you. Though what I meant is that it can’t be searched on Google with just it’s title i.e. the name of the blog ( The House in Amboseli) without someone having to enter the link (shibswali etc). But maybe that will take a while? Thanks.

  Searching on “The House in Amboseli” (without quotes) returns 1.6 million hits – why should your site be on page 1?

  Put quotes on the string and your site shows on page 1

  https://www.google.com/search?q=The+House+in+Amboseli&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=rcs

  Getting any given search string on page one can take some time and effort – visit @timethiefs site for better blogging tips – or look in the forum for how to have your blog search better

  Thank you auxclass. Didn’t realize putting the quotation marks made such a difference. It actually comes up on page One as you’ve said. Thank you for that guidance.
