    Hi there,

    I understand how important it is for your website to be visible on search engines, and I will be happy to help you with this matter.

    Have you submitted your website to Google through their Search Console yet? This is the best way to ensure your site is indexed and appears in search results. If you haven’t, I suggest following this helpful guide from WordPress.com to submit your site: https://wordpress.com/support/site-verification-services/#google-search-console.

    Make sure you’ve used relevant keywords, optimized your content, and ensured your website is mobile-friendly. This will improve your website’s visibility and attract more visitors. You can test it using various SEO tools.

    It’s also worth noting that it may take some time for your website to appear on Google search results, especially if it is a new website. Google’s algorithm considers various factors such as website content, relevance, and authority when ranking websites on their search results pages.

    I hope this information helps you get your WordPress site to appear in Google search results.

    Thanks!
