Adobe Portfolio - Search Settings/ Google search

KariBu

Hey guys!

I recently created a portfolio page with Adobe Portfolio:
https://karinbufe.myportfolio.com/

The page is online and can be accessed directly via the URL.
However the page can't be found in search engines like Google or bing.
I already used "Search Optimization Settings" of adobe portfolio to create key words and information to make my site more discoverable.
I also registered my page at Google Search Console.
But it still can't be found.

I'm afraid, I'm a total noop when it comes to creating a web presence.
Did anyone had the same problem and knows how to solve it?

@KariBu Hi Karin, I also use Adobe Protfolio for my website, but I bought a domain name, so that my name doesn't have the myportfolio part. I don't think it is the reason why you can't be find. I tried to google you and I didn't get any result for your website.
Did you set up the settings right?

There is this image in the help site---I have many meta words there, My name as Website title, than I also have both boxes checked (allow search... and automaticly submit...)

@MichaelaH Thanks for your quick response. I did the settings in the same way, so I guess this can't be the problem.

@KariBu How long is it that you activated your website? Maybe it is still to early, google and all the search engines need more time...

@KariBu actually when you just Made your site live, your domain will not show up in any searches for a month. It’s still registering or something. After a month it will show up. I created my website with Adobe Portfolio and the same thing happened to me.

If you informed google about the site, then it should appear there eventually but it will take time for google to index the page. Give it a couple of weeks.

Thanks for your answers!
I will wait a few weeks and see if I can find my page then.

My website can be found now! I got an email from google search console today that my website may appear in the google search results now

Thanks for all your helpful replys!
