Occasionally when I publish blog it does not appear in tagged topics
-
If I have tagged a blog “weekly photo challenge” or “postaday” etc. it does not appear there in the reader. This happens every so often and is very frustrating and upsetting. Can anyone help please?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This is the block of categories and tags you assigned to a single post:
Posted in Allotment, Cinnabar moth, cornflowers, daisies, Flowers, Moths, Nature, Photography, postaday, Weekly photo challenge, Weekly Photo Challenge: The Sign Says • Tagged allotment, Cinnabar moth, Cornflowers, flowers, nature, photography, postaday, Weekly photo challenge, Weekly Photo Challenge: The Sign Says
All reasons for non-appearance of posts on Topics pages can be found here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts
As you have assigned a combined total that exceeds 15 Categories/Tags to your posts, you need to edit and delete. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/ After removal of the excess categories and/or tags note it may take several days for your posts to begin displaying there.
You are inadvertently spamming AKA tag spamming. You ought to be more concerned about Google and Bing than the WordPress.com Topics pages because it’s search engines that send a significant flow of traffic to blogs and they can choose to bury your content where the sun don’t shine for tag spamming.
The rule of thumb is to assign the least combined number of relevant categories and tags that accurately describe the post content.

Thank you again! :) -
