  Hi. I launched my blog yesterday but it is still not appearing in Google search. I can only see it as coming soon. I already verified my website. Please let me know what is the reason behind it and how I can fix it step by step?

  Hi there,

  Can you share your site URL?

  If your site is on WordPress.com,
  Please note, search engines can take 4-6 weeks or more to show any newly created sites.
  Also, when you first create your site, by default the site will be Private. In order to launch your site, you will need to verify your email address.

  Click on below link to understand the steps to launch your website:

  If you want your site to appear on Google, you can check the below link :

  Also, please note that this forum is for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If your site is using the open-source WordPress.org, please check the below link :

  Hope your query is resolved

  Cheers!

  Hi there,

  Judging by the site connected to your WordPress.com account it looks like you’re using the open-source WordPress software and therefore you need to seek help at these forums:

  The forum you’re currently posting is for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and the WordPress software you can read this document:
