My site doesn't show on google
-
Just registered and started up a blog yesterday. Even had 4 posts.
However, when I try to google search it, the site doesn’t show. I even tried google searching the website address and no hits whatsoever.
Is there a reason for this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Note that it can take weeks for search engines to index content in a new blog and/or to re-index content under a new URL. https://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/
Please see here for more information https://onecoolsite.wordpress.com/2010/01/21/omg-i-cant-find-my-blog-on-google/
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
I recommend using the step by step tutorial linked to the bottom of your Admin page https://learn.wordpress.com
See also the “Video Quick Start” tutorial http://en.support.wordpress.com/video-quick-start/
The support documentation is all found at the Support link http://en.support.wordpress.com which is also linked to on the bottom of your Admin page.

Thank you, timethief. Your help was most appreciated.
Today, the site can be found on a Google search. However, there is no description written about it. Instead this appears:
“A description for this result is not available because of this site’s robots.txt – learn more.”
I know I must sound like a real noob, because I am (haha), but is this temporary or is there some way I can get my blog’s descriptions and stuff to appear on a google search.
Many thanks in advance for anyone who can help.

When you set a blog to private while setting up and then do your set up and then make it public the search results produce what you describe. As soon as you begin to publish posts frequently and search engines index it that result is driven downward in search results.
