    Hey there! I’m kind of new here but maybe I can try to help you figure this out.

    The first thing to check would be to make sure you hit “Save & Publish” at the top of the toolbar on the left hand side after customizing your blog. And also to make sure, if you have any posts on there, that you didn’t accidentally set them to post privately. Here’s how to check.

    Secondly: When I’m reviewing my blog I usually open a second window that goes to my domain – not an editor or anything, just my blog. And I refresh that instead of opening a new window every time I want to see if something took when I hit Publish. So you could try that.

    And lastly: How did you search for your site? I just tried a few different ways for mine. It didn’t work when I searched for post titles or the blog title because they are more common phrases and, since it seems like the Reader searches through content and tags as well, it pulls up a lot more information that just that specific title.
    It did work when I searched my username and url though, because those are unique to me.

    Let me know if that helped!

    I forgot to mention, when you check your post visibility settings you should also make sure your blog Privacy Settings are the way you want them. Here’s how. :)
