  I read that these blogs will not show up on search engines. Is there a way to change that? Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  WordPress.com blogs are very well optimized for search engines. But your blog is two days old: it takes days or even weeks before search engines find a new blog. Just keep posting.

  Sorry TT, I’ll disagree with your first suggestion: to get your blog indexed you don’t need to verify it.

  No you don’t need to but I choose to supply link to all useful information found in the support docs when I feel it is relevant.
