  Hi,

  The first thing you need to do is make sure your Privacy Settings do allow search engines. Unfortunately, you cannot control when your site will get picked up by a search engine. Google can take 4-6 weeks or more to add any new sites.

  The following support page covers why your blog might not be in Google: https://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

  Hope this answers your question.
