 * Hi,
 *  After installing Webpress to my own server, is there anything I need to do to
   make it search engine searchable? I still want to be able to generate traffic
   to my Blog. I understand that blogs posted on XYZ.wordpress.com are automatically
   entitled to being searchable by Google et al. Is this also automatic for those
   of us who download and install WordPress?
 * Thanks.

   is a good Codex article to start with.
