  Hi, when putting this site together I clicked the wordpress privacy settings. Now I want search engines to find the site google keeps returning “problem with robot.txt”. I removed the wordpress privacy settings about 3 days ago. Will google access the site eventually and if so how long?

  Since your robots.txt now allows indexing, normally it can take up to 4-6 weeks for search engines to pick up on the change. See here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

  I also suggest registering for Google’s Webmaster Tools http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/
