  The WordPress.com search engine indexes post, pages, and comments content (body text). Unless entered as text in those contents, blog name, post titles, and post/comment author names are not indexed. http://en.support.wordpress.com/wordpresscom-search/

  Use omnisearch in your dashboard http://en.support.wordpress.com/omnisearch/

  For Topics (Tags page) searches see http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/ This is the syntax http://en/wordpress.com/tags/canada
  See here http://wordpress.com/#!/read/topics/

  For Google searches use this format and replace “keyword” with whatever word or keyword phrase you wish:
  keyword site:wordpress.com/

  Example search string
  Queen Victoria site:wordpress.com
