My site not visible to public

Hi there,
Is there a problem with viewing the site, or is it that it doesn’t appear in google? If you think there’s a problem with others viewing the site (for example it says an error has occurred), please share the URL of your site so we can see if the same happens for us.
If you’ve only just launched your site, it can still take 4-6 weeks for search engines to find it, so if you’re just typed in your website’s name into a search engine and haven’t found your website, that could be the reason.If your website has been launched for a while but still isn’t showing up, here are some suggestions to increase traffic and get google to index your site higher on the list of search results:
Use a mix of appropriate broad and specific tags. For example, add tags that are to do with the general theme you write about (e.g. books, art, sailing, photography etc.) but also specific topics you are discussing in a site (e.g. a specific book review, a specific type of boat, etc.). If you want to appear on the WordPress reader, make sure not to use more than 15 tags and categories combined; if there are any more, the Reader won’t index your site. You can read more about that here: https://wordpress.com/support/topics/
It’s also a good idea to use keywords that are related to your site. Make sure it doesn’t turn into ‘keyword stuffing’, though; if you use so many keywords that the sentences become unnatural, this could affect your site negatively.
It’s important to keep posting. Search engines like it when blogs are being updated regularly.
