  WordPress.com pings the major search engines every time your publish and edit. If your blog is new it will take frequent publication of content to become noticed by search engines. This is the process we WordPress.com bloggers use to verify our blog ownership with the major search engines. http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/
  Wordpress.com provides sitemaps and there’s nothing you need to do.

  You JUST started a blog. It can take up to seven weeks to get noticed, because search engines don’t bother with you till you’ve got a decent amount of content.

  @timethief I have also checked on ismyblogworiking.com and I can’t find a solution.
  Many thanks.

  @raincoaster I know it takes time, but I have another blog improntemediterranee.wordpress.com that as soon as I built it was visible on google and everywhere. Thank you for you comment.

  There’s clearly a problem with your RSS Feed that only Staff can fix.

  The problem with your RSS feed at http://ensemblespringtrio.wordpress.com/ is that you have no posts. Once you publish a post, your feed will being to work.

  Thanks for being gracious. I’m exhausted and that’s why it happened. Last week was hell on wheels and the weekends sucked big time.

  timethief i wouldn’t pay much attention to that ismyblogworking site either. It told me that one of my blogs was NOT indexed by Google yet we were indexed with 59 posts. ismyblogworking is not working! How ironic!
