  Hi there,
  You failed to post the original URL above so I’m not sure how to help you. What attracts search engines is frequent publication of unique content the cannot be found anywhere else on the internet. It can take weeks before blog indexing to take place. The process we use for verifying free hosted WordPress.com blogs with search engines is found here > 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 provides the search engines with site maps. We bloggers do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/

  For more information read > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/01/21/omg-i-cant-find-my-blog-on-google/

  We Volunteers watch bloggers changing URLs like they are changing their socks every day and we cringe as it seems they do not comprehend what the support docs state and they do not seem to know what the are doing.

  Just to be sure your understand, are you clear on what changing a blog URL does? Any authority and or page rank that belongs to the original URL is not transferable to the new URL unless you purchase a site redirect upgrade.
