  The redirection from my original blog address to the newly bought domain name works fine. However, when I try to google my domain name (ashishrocks.net) – It does not list that at all? Why is that?

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

  Hi there,

  Your blog is still listed in Google using your original blog address ashishrocks.wordpress.com. We notify search engines about changes on your blog, but we can’t control how long it takes them to update the information in their search results, including your new domain name.

  It often takes 4-6 weeks for search engines to update their search results with changes. You can try using Google’s webmaster tools to help speed things along, if you’d like: Webmaster Tools

  You can also read more about how WordPress.com works with search engines here: Search Engines

  Please let me know if I can provide any further help with this.
