  Hello @hollowjupiter
  By default WordPress.COM sites are really search engine friendly, so you do not have to do anything from your site to add your site Google. The only thing to do would be is to ensure that you allow your site to be indexed by Google from your privacy settings.

  More information about it can be found on this official support guide:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

  Hope this helps 🙂

  Howdy hollowjupiter!
  Here is a quote from the Support Page

  WordPress.com automatically sends notifications to Google with every post and page update. The search engines can take 4-6 weeks or more to add any new sites. While not necessary to be included in Google’s index, connecting your site to Google’s Search Console can help Google include your site more quickly.

  Free sites are indexed directly and for custom sites you can use Google Verifications, Here is the support document to help you with the information Search Engines

  Hope this helps, let us know if you have any further questions..!
