  I haven’t been at wordpress long but my blog is listed with google. On July 18th i added a post “Two Favourite Things” which could be found in Google Blog search under “Dan Cruickshank”. Now it has disappeared completely and is not even under previous week. It is just no longer there at all anywhere. There is another earlier post of mine there but not this one. Does anyone know why it would just disappear like that? Would it have been removed for some reason? Thank you.

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

  Google is constantly reworking how it ranks things and unfortunately that means that it can do things like this unpredictably. If you wanted to push it, make a new post which contains a link to the old post, and for the alt text on the link, use “Dan Cruickshank”.

  OK thank you for that good advice..i just wondered why it had disappeared as it defeats the purpose of a blog if the postings are nowhere to be found.

  You can always check what pages/posts that Google has indexed from your site

  Thank you very much for that link. I didn’t know how to do that. I see all my postings are there EXCEPT the one mentioned above.
