  I was able to visit your site without logging in. Have you used password protection on any posts or pages? From the Password Protect a Post section of the Post Visibility support page:

  WordPress will prompt you for the password on your initial visit to a protected post. After entering the password that first time, WordPress will securely store the password with the browser you entered it with so you won’t have to enter it again.

  Hi there!

  Did you recently change your blog’s privacy settings from private to public? If so, Facebook may still be caching the older version of your site, which wasn’t viewable to the public. You can use Facebook’s Debug tool to clear their cache:

  https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/

  Enter your site’s address into the Input URL field and then ‘Fetch new scrape information.’ Let me know if you’re still seeing the ‘Protected Blog’ message in posts you share after that.
