  Hi there,

  Even if you verify your site in Search Console and submit a sitemap to them, it will still take several weeks before your site will start appearing in search results. It takes several weeks for search engines to index any new site, and your site was only set to public yesterday, so that process has barely even started yet :)

  So far you also have only two posts on your site, both of them published while the site was still private, so at the moment there’s not much for search engines to index.

  The best thing you can do at this point is to publish new content regularly – each time you publish a new post, we notify Google and other search engines so they can come and index it. So the more often you publish new content, the more often we’ll ping Google and the faster your site will get indexed.

  We have more information on this here:
