  I set this site up as a private site with just myself and two other people able to view it. Today I wanted to change it to public. Under settings – reading- I clicked on make my site visible to search engines and saved the changes.
  The site should be public now, but isn’t. If I look at each page it says that the page visibility is public, except nobody else can see it still. Can anyone help? as I really don’t know what else to try?

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

  You received a reply about the same question two hours ago: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/changing-my-site-from-private-to-public-1?replies=2#post-2946427

  PS: https://eastbourneuna.wordpress.com displays just fine for me.

  Hi, thanks for your replies – it seems some people can see this site and others can’t? Yep I am totally confused and not really sure what to try next?

  Your settings are correct and WordPress.com is displaying the site. If some people can’t see it then it must be their settings at fault. These “others”….. are they in a particular country?

  I went ahead and closed the thread I replied in as this one has further developed. Let’s keep the discussion here.
