It's either public and accessible and available to Google for indexing and accessible everyone else on the internet or it's private. There is no other option.

What could be done is making that page private, creating a contact form on a page and URL for the private page only to those who use the contact form. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

That said please read on ...

IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content or making it private does not remove it from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 - 6 months.

I understand the privacy settings. I want the page to be visible to all visitors to the site, but I was just hoping I could prevent the page from appearing on google (and other) search results. A happy medium perhaps?

the main theme of my blog is science fiction and robots in particular. i've been a massive sci-fi fan for a number of years, both on screen and through reading books. i'm in the middle of finishing an english literature degree, so want somewhere to practise my casual writing as well as taking a break from writing about shakespeare and such every day. it's mainly short pieces, the odd book review, pictures of robots, robot of the day, reviews of sci-fi shows i've been watching recently and other assorted miscellany.

if any of this might interest you, then please do take a look, as well as suggesting any improvements you think i could make. all comments gratefully received :)

thanks, ted! http://strungupstrungout.wordpress.com/

Please always either link your name to your blog (under Profile->Website) or give us the direct link when you ask a question.

In WordPress.com it's all or nothing; you can make the ENTIRE blog visible to readers but invisible to search engines (the middle setting on your Dashboard-Settings->Privacy) but you can't do that for individual pages.

If you're actually talking about Pages rather than Posts, it's not really necessary, since Pages have such little googlejuice in the first place.

We have had a new webiste developed using WordPress by using one of the themes. The site is here: http://virtualpso.com

We have published it to the main search engines but it is still not showing up. Though I am not a technical expert (I didn't build the site), I do know it takes a little while for the search engines to come to the site and index but it has been a week now and it is not showing up on any.

I would be grateful if somebody could tell me how we can check whether our site is correctly setup for the search engines. I know about the robots.txt which we have opened up in the admin panel. Is there anything else we need to do, or is it simply a case of we need to wait and see.

Many thanks,
Mike
