  I created my site last September on the free plan. I put my name on my site and recently searched Google for it, using my name. I got only 72 results and checked all of them but did not find my site. Is this because my site is on the free plan and if I upgrade it, it becomes searchable in Google?

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

  Hi there, Google and most search engines use the content of your site as well as traffic to give priority in the search results. You could try to add your name in the content of your post to improve your score, if a name related score is important to you.
  Uusing the free plan wont make you less discoverable on search engines.
  I’m adding a link that will explain more about WordPress.com SEO

  Hi there, thanks for your answer! I added my name on my site page but didn’t find that page in the search results. Do you have any idea why this is the case?
