Hi, I have a question as to why my website and github account do not show up when I Google it? Why it is not found on google? Can someone please help here and inform me how to get it to show up on Google Search? It is just because it is a new site that I created last week or...?

Hi @MadisonButchko ,

It's probably because your account and the github.io page haven't been indexed yet by the Google search engine, in my case I had to wait a while for my username to appear on Google, the same happens if you change your username; when I changed mine, I had to wait almost 1 month for it to appear in the search results.
