  I have a domain name registered with GoDaddy and in setting up my WordPress website, I want that domain name to be the primary address.
  I followed instructions to change the server names with my domain registrar to NS1.WORDPRESS.COM etc and received notification to say it had been done but my blog/site still wont display when Googled.
  Can you help please?

  Hi there,

  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. For more information about WordPress.com and Search Engines, please see http://support.wordpress.com/search-engines/ .

  It will take a couple of days from the time you created your blog for it to show up in WordPress.com search results. For more information please see http://support.wordpress.com/wordpresscom-search/ .

  To give Google and other search engines a head start, you might look into using Google’s Webmaster Tools:
