  I have unchecked the private button and have clicked the allow website browsers access and my site still doesn’t show on a web search.

  If you just flipped it over, it can take a bit of time for it to be picked up by search engines.

  I flipped it last Friday, Oct. 24th. Is that long enough?

  Good info here:

  It says it can take up to 4-6 weeks. I had no idea it could be that long!

  Wow. That’s a long time. Is there a way to speed it up?
