Taking wordpress blog live
-
Hi. Still very new at this. Do I need to have a website host to be able to have my blog searchable on Google. I have published the pages I need to, but still can’t locate it on Google – even with very focused keywords. Please help.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
It takes time and the frequent publication of fresh content in posts (not pages) that cannot be found elsewhere on the internet to get search engine attention. http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

Thanks timethief. So just to put one part of my query to rest, do I need to have a host to launch my blog from, or is the blog automatically live/searchable once the pages/posts are published? thanks

No you do not need to hire a web host. You already have one ie. WordPress.com is you blog host. WordPress.com pings the major search engines every time you publish and/or delete. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/02/15/new-content-wordpress-com-pings-for-you/
