You don't really have much on your blog for a search engine to grab onto - you need to write (blog) more - see also the site below for tips on better blogging

If they don't know where to look then they won't be able to find your website.

To point it in the right direction you need to register here:

http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools

To authorise your wordpress website with Webmaster tools you can follow this guide on setting it up:

http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/

Once your website appears in Webmaster tools you should submit a site index. Find the Site index sub-page on Webmaster tools and it will ask you for the address of your Sitemap. It should be http://www.yourwebaddress.com/sitemap.xlm

Hope that helps.

Thanks again

You should register for Google Webmaster tools and then submit a sitemap to Google.

It can take a while for Google to index your page, submitting your sitemap usually gives it a bit of a kick up the backside.
