My blog won't show up on google when I try to search it
-
Hi,
I recently made a blog – the problem was I was still logged into a friends account. We were able to change the email etc. so that the site became mine. But when we tried to search it in google (green minded nutrition) nothing comes up.
Hoping someone can help me make it so that it’s visible on google.
Thank you!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi There,
Sometimes search engines can take from 4-6 weeks to detect a new site. You will also want to be sure that your privacy settings are set to public.You can do this by clicking My Sites – Settings, then scroll down until you see the Privacy section.Here is a great support site that can give you some information regarding Search Engine Optimization with a WordPress.com site.
It can provide you with some information and some ways you can increase your rank.https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2013/03/22/seo-on-wordpress-com/Hope this helps! Thanks

re: search engine discoverability
All support docs are at https://en.support.wordpress.com/
It can take weeks for search engines to index your site content. Please read this support doc https://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/ so you know we have no control over search engines positioning or appearance in the SERPs (search engine page results).To verify blog ownership of a WordPress.com hosted blog with the major search engines you must use this process > http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/
Note: Even if you do not verify the blog the content will be indexed by search engines so don’t feel panicky about this please.WordPress.com automatically supplies sitemaps for our blogs to search engines – we do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/#xml-sitemaps-for-search-engines
To gain search engine attention, I recommend that you start publishing posts (not pages) https://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ frequently. That’s because it can take weeks for search engines to index content in a new blog and/or to re-index content under a new URL.
