    I put a category and tag on my blog post but when I search for it under those names I can not find it??? What do i have to do to get my blog to show up under (let's say) the "charity" category? Thanks

    You are over-tagging which is also referred to as Tag spamming or Spamdexing. Please read the information here and then act on it > http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts
    Note: It will take several days after you edit and remove the excessive Categories/Tags before your posts will begin to appear on Topics pages.

    Thanks. I went back and just have a few tags. So the posts should now be posted under the categories I have selected? Thanks again for your time as I have only been doing this for 2 days.
