  The tag listing is somewhat randomized due to the amount of usage that it gets. If it wasn’t, page 1 would be nothing but posts made in the last minute.

  You may be able to see your post there immediately after publishing, but it’s normal to not find it on repeat visits.

  And it’s not about the first page,but it didn’t show up on any page till I reached posts of 2days back.In that case I don’t know if my post showed up anywhere and if anyone in the same challenge can read it.

  To be honest, I think it’s just better to trust that it will work. Given the amount of blogs here (over twenty million) and the random nature of the tag listing, you could spend days tracking down your post. Tag listing like this are more about content discovery for readers and less about organization for bloggers.
