  Hello vkivers,

  If you wish to make you blog public then follow below steps,
  1. Login to your WordPress dashboard.
  2. Go to MySites and switch to the site you wish to publicaly available.
  3. Scroll down to settings in configure section and on the right side you’ll see a Privacy section. Select the option “Public” and save settings.

  Try to access your site from another browser and let us know if that helped you.

  Addition to above reply if it’s related to single blog post and not the whole Site.

  Another thing which you can try is that,
  1. Go to MySites and navigate to WP Admin.
  2. Hover over Posts and click on All posts.
  3. Hover over to blog post which you want to make it public and click and Edit option.
  4. Once the blog post is open, set the visibility to “Public” under Publish Tab.
  Click on Update button and open your blog post in another browser.
