    What makes you think your theme is not SEO optimized?

    If it is because your blog is not high on search engines – that might be because you have not content on your blog. You need to give search engines a reason to index your site – so far you have done nothing

    Sorry, I did not explain it exactly.
    The thing is, that the meta desctiption for google is not nice. How can I change the meta?

    Google gets it’s description of your site from your site – you have not much content for any search engine to latch onto – my suggestion is to add more Posts to your blog – each time you add a Post your blog calls up search engines and asks the search engine to stop by

    We do not have access to any metadata on this multi-user blogging platform. Our blogs share a common architecture. We bloggers cannot access metadata and insert keywords. However, that matters little given that these days search engines are focused on keywords in your content and not in your tags. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/03/01/revisiting-keywords-and-tags/

    These 5 videos introduce how Google discovers, crawls, indexes your site’s pages, and how Google displays them in search results. It also touches lightly upon challenges webmasters and search engines face, such as duplicate content http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/03/22/5google-webmasters-video-tutorials/

    If you are using a WordPress.com theme good SEO is a given. However, going beyond the theme what the blogger has done within that structure is worth evaluating. Whether you write informative, persuasive or controversial content learning how search engines work, and how to apply basic SEO to you content will benefit your blog as it will increase traffic from targeted readers. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/10/21/two-seo-videos-for-bloggers/
