    Hi there,

    I have checked your account and it looks like you are blocking some of the search engines by turning the SmugMug Search Visibility to NO - MAKE ME AN ISLAND!

    You will need to turn this off in your account settings - > Discovery - > Search.

    I hope this helps!

    ok thanks, I can not immediately see any change but maybe it takes some time. My choice of google search options due to that I want to be found on google. My choice of Smugmug search options because I do not sell photos and therefore has no special interest in that I can be found when people search on SmugMug. But I understand that it is a condition to be indexed by google that I also activates smugmug search ...?
