  I updated my blog to a regular domain and now the website isn’t showing up – not when I type in robinsonstreetrva.com or robinsonstreetrva.wordpress.com (old website)

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

  Probably you looked at this :http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

  This page says that search engines can take 4-6 weeks or more to add any new sites.

  Just like your new domain requires some time to wait, you must wait some time to see your blog in search results.

  When you changee URLs, all of the content originally indexed at one URL has to be re-indexed by search engines at the new URL, and that can take 3 months or so depending on how much content there is.
