  Have created a couple of pages on my new wordpress site.I am able to view it on my dashboard but when I go to my blogs and click on the domain a page not found error is displayed I also typed in the domain in google and got no result. How long does it take for my site to become visable?

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

  All is well. By default your blogs page displays all your posts and you have not published any posts. The 404 (page not found) error message on that page of your blog appeared because you deleted the placeholder Hello World post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/not-found/ As soon as you publish a post, not a page it will disappear. http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

  That’s not surprising as the blog is empty ie. devoid of any blogger created content so the search spiders have nothing to index on the site. It takes time and the frequent publication of fresh content that cannot be found elsewhere on the internet to get search engine attention. http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/
