I think may need 1down the line anyway. Cheers you all.

Remember, all of this happens on Google's end. http://support.google.com/websearch/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1710607

As far as domain email, as you have a custom domain, you an set up with an email provider following the instructions in this Support doc http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/add-email/

I followed the steps as mentioned by Jennifer and it worked well for me. even though its not evident in search results yet as it will take some time to get it working...

Even after doing what you said it still shows an error according to this check http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

I am starting to think a Verified domain email is the only way, and no offence to Gravatar, but Google does not seem to care. Does WordPress.com allow emails to be set up through our blogs? Thanks for all the help.

On Google+ make sure to add your WordPress.com site to your profile under "Contributor to".

Is there any possible way to have my image from Google + show up when my website is searched on Google. So far, I can only find advice that is geared for sites designed on the WordPress software.

Moreover, I have already indexed my website on bing and Google, and it shows that its working fine according to isyourblogworking.com

Thanks in advance
