no search results for my blog postings
-
When I search WordPress.com for my blog name which is ‘Mulout’ I get 11 results, all quite properly from by blog postings. But when I enter wordpress using an anomious proxy server that disquises my url and I enter the same search term ‘mulout’, I get 0 results. Apperantly no one except myself can search and find my stuff on WordPress? What’s with this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi. I get 11 results as well when I’m logged in. However when I’m logged out, I get 0 results as well…

Also keep in mind that the search engine only indexes the body text of blog posts, pages, and comments. The blog name, post titles, and post/comment author names are not indexed. http://en.support.wordpress.com/wordpresscom-search/

Thanks, raincoaster and timethief for taking the time to respond, but sadly your responses are not helpful: the point is that the search term ‘mulout’ DOES return a number of hits (11) when I perform the search from MY computer, but when a friend of mine (or, similarly, when I access the site using a proxy server) performs the same search there are 0 hits. New subject: airodyssey, thank you also for responding. Your experience is similar to my friend’s experience: since she is not a member of wordpress she cannot ‘log in’, and when she searches wordpress.com (I have insured that she is not lost at the wordpress.org site) and she does the same search she gets 0 results.

Expecting the wordpress.com search to return results when you search the blog name only is unreasonable: that you got any results at all is surprising.
