  I purchased a domain site name http://www.spookybeavers.com but when I go to google the site it does not appear. Do I need to set something?

  Also the site domain name noted above says http://spookybeaver.com and it should be http://www.spookybeaver.com . Is that just the way it shows above or do I need to request the www ?

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

  You can’t use the www on a WordPress.com site, and it’s considered old-fashioned now. It also limits who can see your site.

  New domain names take a while for search engines to index, just as if you’d started a new blog.
