Why doesn't my page show up in the search?

I searched for "propagating hydrangeas" which is the exact URL of a page I wrote here and nothing came up in the search. 

Why?  Is it because of the lack of that wording on the page?

How old is the page, Dustytoes? Have you searched way back in the SERPS? Try taking a line of text from the page instead of the title and see if that brings up the page.

Actually, I've just tried and can't find it either.

It comes up on place 6 when you search for "hydrangeas".

I dunno why the search engine gets confused by the full term. I doubt you miss any traffic because of that.

Okay, thanks Hollie and Chef. 

I don't know much about the search stuff, so thought I'd ask.  I have seen it under hydrangeas which is fine.

Have a good one!

I put the words you posted here for propagating hydrangeas to find nothing. I then added wizzley and tried again. There it was.
